Damping induced by vertically sloshing liquids at large amplitudes is of interest in the
understanding of the dynamic response of aircraft wings containing fuel. This work presents …

A spillway is a conveyance structure designed to pass flood waters. The construction of
steps down the steep chute may contribute to some energy dissipation, in turn reducing the …

During the recent decades, a number of overflow embankment protection systems were
implemented. One design is the Minimum Energy Loss (MEL) weir, developed to pass large …

In the traditional stepped spillways with uniform width, the inception points of air entrainment
along the spillway transverse direction generally remain at a similar distance from the …

At weirs and dams, the spillway flow is a high-velocity turbulent motion operating at very-
large Reynolds numbers and physical measurements are challenging. In these high-speed …

In a spillway chute flow, the upstream flow is typically non-aerated and the flow becomes self-
aerated when the turbulent stresses acting next to the water surface exceeds the combined …

The appropriate design and operation of spillways are critical for dam safety. To enhance
design practices and gain insights into flow hydraulics, both experimental and numerical …

For the last five decades, a number of overflow stepped chutes were built because the
staircase shape is conducive to reduced construction costs and increased rate of energy …

The analysis of bubbly two-phase flows is challenging due to their turbulent nature and the
need for intrusive phase-detection probes. However, accurately characterizing these flows is …

In self-aerated free-surface flows, the upstream flow is typically non-aerated and the flow
becomes a strong air-water mix once the turbulent shear stress acting next to the interface …
