Streamlined weirs, which are a nature-inspired type of weir, have gained tremendous
attention among hydraulic engineers, mainly owing to their established performance with …

A spillway comprises several sections, primarily the crest and chute, essential for safe water
flow from an upstream reservoir to a downstream river. Incorporating a hydrofoil crest and …

The sea lion fore flipper has superior underwater movement performance. Its structural
characteristics and propulsion mechanism are drawn, combined with the large deformation …

This study evaluates the air inception point and discharge coefficient (Cd) in Hydrofoil-
Crested Stepped Spillways (HCSS) through laboratory experiments on 60 models. The …

This paper proposes an innovative methodology applied to blade optimization for
hydrodynamic performance improvement of a horizontal axial tidal current turbine (HATCT) …

Experimental studies and numerical simulations are conducted on the airfoil weir-orifice
facilities to find a flow measurement and control device with a stable combined outflow form …

The rounded crested weirs are commonly used for discharge measurements and this
overflow structures have advantages such as stable overflow pattern and good accuracy …

In order to find an integrated flow measurement and control facility with stable outflow form, a
series of experiments and numerical simulations were performed for the inclined airfoil …

Weirs are one of the most common hydraulic structures used to regulate the upstream
approach flow depth and measure the flow discharge. The hydrofoil weirs are a type of short …

In this study, an integrated measurement and control facility with an airfoil weir as the
primary overcurrent structure is proposed by considering the flow characteristics over …
