In fact, this is an alternative for the design or rehabilitation of spillways. It can even be used as a strategy in problems related to dam safety. A sequential design method for a labyrinth weir is based on optimal geometric parameters and the results of discharge flow analysis u...
In addition, the impossibility of extend old weirs due to the lack of space caused by the confinement of public areas in urban consolidated settlements leaves only this kind of alternative to improve the security of dam and downstream population. To guarantee good flood peak attenuation, a gap ...
The design of the weir is based upon structural, geotechnical and hydraulic considerations. Political matters might also affect the weir site location and the decision to build the dam. A consequent cost of the structure is the spillway, designed to safely pass the maximum peak flood. In ...
We can custom design the hydraulic pump station to achieve synchronous lifting and dropping of the dam 's surface. Importantly, if the flow and the power of the hydraulic pump are enhanced to accommodate the special needs of customers, the cost of the d...

The design of energy dissipation devices such as stilling basins is a special area of hydraulics and is discussed in the next chapter. Extensive model studies are often employed with the results presented in the form of dimensionless designs. These designs are then adapted to particular ...

This chapter explains the processes by which an appropriate discharge site is selected and then the hydraulic design of the outlet and other parts of the system.Sections 4.2 and 4.3 introduce the terms and conditions, while Section 4.4 describes analytical tools and approaches and presents some basi...
Crookston and Tullis present a labyrinth weir spreadsheet-based design program with supporting discharge coefficient [C_d(α°)] data for quarter-round and half-round crest labyrinth weirs and various sidewall angles (α). The information presented can be used to determine the required labyrinth ...
The consequences of manmade hydraulic disturbances in association with weir design lead to a discussion of how the hydraulics influence both design and operation of treatment plants.doi:10.1080/09593338509384374Olsson, GustafStephenson, Joe P.Taylor & Francis GroupEnvironmental Technology Letters...
