The combination of a labyrinth weir with an orifice is a proper solution for floating material to pass over the weir and transfer sediment through the orifice. Additionally, creating a slot in the overflow wing leads to higher discharge.

Comparison of Discharge Coefficient Between Arced Piano Key Weir and Non-Arc Piano Key Weirs [PDF]
In this paper, discharge coefficient of arced piano key weir compared against two models of normal or fashionable piano key weirs with no arc in their plan. The arced piano key weirs are less investigated. Piano key weirs are pretty new sort of labyrinth

Dam breach is rare but catastrophic event that occurs when a dam fails and releases impounded water downstream causing significant damage. Dam breach has a low probability of occurrence but carries high risk of destruction. Dudhkoshi Storage Hydroelectric Project (DKSHEP) concrete‐faced rock‐fill dam (CFRD) was studied for dam breach under overtopping ...

ABSTRACT Climate change coupled with large‐scale surface disturbances necessitate active restoration strategies to promote resilient and genetically diverse native plant communities. However, scarcity of native plant materials hinders restoration efforts, leading practitioners to choose from potentially viable but nonlocal seed sources.

Crest length is an important parameter in influencing the discharge handling capacity of a weir. Nonlinear weirs with longer crests are cost effective alternatives for those existing dam structures which are more susceptible to failure due to loss of ...

A quantitative model for the discharge coefficient of the triangular broad‐crested weir has been established, and a new formula for calculating the discharge coefficient has been proposed. Abstract The broad‐crested weir is convenient to construct and has a small amount of excavation, widely used in practical engineering.

A historical overview of experimental hydrology in China
We review 87 papers (79 of these in Chinese) from the CNKI and Web of Science websites to chronicle the history of experimental studies in China from 1900 to 2000. We show 4 main periods of development associated with political change and economic development in China. We highlight four significant advances as the most important achievements in Chinese

Abstract Social play behaviour is a rewarding activity that can entail risks, thus allowing young individuals to test the limits of their capacities and to train their cognitive and emotional adaptability to challenges. Here, we tested in rats how opportunities for risk‐taking during play affect the development of cognitive and emotional capacities and

Sacred offerings and secular foods on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago, East Polynesia
ABSTRACT In 1976, Yosihiko H. Sinoto conducted extensive archaeological survey and excavations on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago as part of a Japanese, multi‐disciplinary expedition led by Prof. Sachiko Hatanaka. Primarily excavating three marae and four habitation sites totalling ∼180 m2, more than 25000 vertebrate remains were recovered.
