Hydraulic Design of Stepped Spillways and Downstream Energy Dissipators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Stepped channels and spillways have been used for centuries. Recently, new construction materials, (e.g. RCC, gabions) and design techniques (e.g. embankment overtopping protection) have increased the interest in stepped chutes.

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Physical Modeling of an Aerating Stepped Spillway

open access: yes, 2016
To mitigate the negative effects on the water quality in the downstream river of a projected large dam, and in particular to increase the dissolved oxygen concentration during low flow periods within the first 10 years of dam operation, an aerating weir has been designed and tested on a physical model at the Laboratory of Engineering Hydraulics (HECE ...

Simple design criterion for residual energy on embankment dam stepped spillways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The stepped spillway design is associated with significant flow resistance and associated energy dissipation on the steps, yielding smaller, more economical downstream dissipation structures. A number of design guidelines were developed for steep stepped

A Laboratory Study Attempt of Flow and Energy Dissipation in Stepped Spillways

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2016
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.

The Study of Energy Loss in Stepped- Labyrinth Spillways

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2020
A ‘spillway’ is a structure used to provide the controlled release of flood water from upstream into downstream area of a dam. As an important component of every dam, a spillway should be constructed strongly, reliably and efficiently to be used at any ...

Data‐Driven Bulldozer Blade Control for Autonomous Terrain Leveling

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A simulation‐driven framework for autonomous bulldozer leveling is presented, combining high‐fidelity terramechanics simulation with a neural‐network‐based reduced‐order model. Gradient‐based optimization enables efficient, low‐level blade control that balances leveling quality and operation time.

A review of accidents and failures of stepped spillways and weirs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Water and Maritime Engineering, 2000
Recent advances in technology have permitted the construction of large reservoirs and chutes. These developments have necessitated the development of new design and construction techniques, particularly with the provision of adequate flood release facilities and safe energy dissipation.

Hydraulic Design of Stepped Cascades, Channels, Weirs and Spillways [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Stepped channels and spillways are used since more than 2,500 years. Recently, new construction materials (e.g. RCC, gabions) have increased the interest for stepped chutes.
