An experimental study was conducted on a large size stepped spillway model with a moderate slope (26.6o) for a range of discharges between 0.020 and 0.237 m/s. In some experiments, the stepped chute was equipped with uniform steps of 5 and 10 cm heights respectively. In addition several non-uniform configurations with combinations of 5 and 10 cm high steps were investigated. For each configurat...

Although field observations of sudden spillway releases highlighted strong aeration of dam break wave flows, no study investigated these two-phase flow characteristics. New original experiments were conducted down a 24 m long stepped waterways. Dam break wave propagation showed an equivalent flow resistance similar to steady flow conditions (f ~ 0.05). Detailed unsteady air-water flow measureme...

A planing hull is a high-speed craft with relatively complex hydrodynamic characteristics. An increase in speed can induce significant change trim angle an increment ship drag. One solution to reduce resistance use interceptor. This research aimed analyze the hydrodynamics of vessel by applying The fundamental aspects reviewed included analysis drag, trim, heave, and lift force. interceptor wou...

The design floods of several reservoirs were recently re-evaluated and the revised spillway outflow could result in dam overtopping with catastrophic consequences for some embankment structures. Herein a physical study was performed on flat and pooled stepped spillways with a slope typical of embankments (θ = 26.6◦) and four stepped configurations were tested: a stepped spillway with flat horiz...

objective:  to assess whether non-surgical periodontal treatment is associated with changes in serological markers of systemic inflammation. materials and methods: thirty-five systemically healthy subjects with severe generalized periodontitis meeting the inclusion criteria participated in a four-month single blind interventional trial of which thirty-two completed the study. periodontal parame...

A chute is characterized by a steep bed slope associated with torrential flow. This chute flow may be either smooth or stepped. The flow conditions in stepped channels are classified as nappe flow, transition flow and skimming flow. In this paper, hydraulic characteristics of flow regimes on the stepped channels are presented systematically under a wide range of discharge, channel slope and ste...

Craft villages are Vietnamese rural villages with existing craft and non-farming activities drawing the participation of at least 30 percent of all households and making at least 50 percent of the village's total income. Out of the total of about 1,450 craft villages, 228 are traditional villages that have a long history and make products that are unique and typically Vietnamese. Various enviro...

The present study was designed to gain knowledge of the relationship between employees' perceived opportunities to craft, their actual job crafting behavior and, in line with JD-R theory, subsequently their work engagement and performance. Although scholars have suggested that employees' perceived opportunities to craft their job may predict their actual job crafting behavior, which may have co...

Textile craft and textile design have always had an important social, cultural and economic impact on both individuals and societies. The cultural heritage of textiles does not end with the preservation and collection of costumes and other textiles in museums. It also includes living traditions inherited from our ancestors. Furthermore, understanding craft and craft processes are crucial when c...
