Physical modeling of a stepped spillway without sidewalls
The interest of a consulting company in designing stepped spillways in roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams led us to propose the possibility of building this type of spillway without sidewalls.

Comparison of stepped and smooth spillway effects on stream reaeration
The oxygen transfer at a hydraulic structure happens by self-aeration through the spillway and by flow aeration in the hydraulic jump downstream of the hydraulic structure.

Prediction of air concentration in stepped spillways using data-oriented methods [PDF]
The high flow velocity and the pressure reduction in the spillways cause damage to the spillways. In the present research, the application of Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) was investigated for predicting air ...

Location of inception point of alternating steps stepped spillways
This study explored the effects of flat-stepped spillways having alternating steps on the inception point location. Two wooden stepped spillways with a longitudinal slope of 26.6° were constructed in a rectangular flume and tested at various discharges, ranging from 0.003 to 0.05 m3/s.

Investigation of hydraulic characteristics down stream of Gabion dams [PDF]
Gabions are water structures that consist of metal mesh boxes contain rocks. This makes gabions very economic and simple. Those structures are widely used in small head works to dissipate the potential energy, and decrease scour.

Pressures on a stepped spillway
This paper presents an analysis of the pressure field on the steps of a stepped spillway on an RCC dam. The fundamental component of this study is a series of pressure measurements obtained in the fully-developed zone of skimming flow regime along a ...

Energy Dissipation on Stepped Spillways [PDF]
The author provided interesting data on stepped spillway flows. The writer would like to add some information on flow resistance of skimming flows and discuss the energy dissipation on stepped chutes. It will be shown that the author's results are not dissimilar with results previously obtained by other researchers.

Predicting the Flow Velocity at the Toe of a Labyrinth Stepped Spillway
The velocity at the toe of a spillway is a major variable when designing a stilling basin. Reducing this velocity leads to reduce the size of the basin as well as the required appurtenances which needs for dissipating the surplus kinetic energy of the ...

A Laboratory Study Attempt of Flow and Energy Dissipation in Stepped Spillways
A new laboratory study conducted on stepped spillways in order to investigate their efficiency of dissipating flow energy. All previous study on stepped spillway indicated that the flow energy dissipation decreased as increasing in discharge.
