The hydraulic jump is the sudden transition from a high-velocity open channel flow regime to
a subcritical flow motion. The flow properties may be solved using continuity and momentum …

In free-surface turbulent flows, large amount of air may be entrapped and advected in the
water current. The resulting air-water flows are frequently observed in natural water systems …

Since the publication of its first edition in 1999,'The Hydraulics of Open Channel Flow'has
been praised by professionals, academics, students and researchers alike as the most …

In classification problems, normally there exists a large number of features, but not all of
them contributing to the improvement of classification performance. These redundant …

Stepped channel design has been in use for more than 3,500 years. Recent advances in
technology have triggered a regained interest in stepped design, although much expertise …

A comparative performance analysis of the CFD platforms OpenFOAM and FLOW-3D is
presented, focusing on a 3D swirling turbulent flow: a steady hydraulic jump at low Reynolds …

Interactions between turbulent waters and atmosphere may lead to strong air–water mixing.
This experimental study is focused on the flow down a staircase channel characterised by …

Environmental Hydraulics is a new text for students and professionals studying advanced
topics in river and estuarine systems. The book contains the full range of subjects on open …

This paper describes measurements of void fractions, bubble frequencies and bubble sizes
in hydraulic jumps with Froude numbers 2.0, 2.4, 3.7 and 4.8. In each case data were …

In an open channel, the transformation from a supercritical flow into a subcritical flow is a
rapidly varied flow with large turbulent fluctuations, intense air entrainment, and substantial …
