Hydraulic jump used to dissipate excessive kinetic energy in natural water ways since the down of time. Screens fixed stilling basin control hydraulic location, depth and length from four decades ago. In this study, screens with a constant height different widths same screen relative area (Ar=0.285) were located behind gate at distance 10 cm tested under wide variance conditions submerged jump....

Formation of hydraulic jump is necessary for dissipation of the excess kinetic energy downstream of spillways and gates. Hydraulic jump stilling basins of sudden expansion are one of the energy dissipater structures which are used where the available tail water depth is less than the required sequent depths. In the present study to further reduce the hydraulic jump sequent depths ratio, a rough...

In turbulent free-shear flows, layers of intense shear bound regions nearly uniform momentum. The thickness these scales as the Kolmogorov length scale and velocity across presents a jump approximately 10% characteristic large-scale flow. shear, rotation dominates, whereas in scalar gradient, strain is prevalent.

This work describes jump-to-contact STM-break junction experiments leading to novel statistical distribution of last-step length associated with conductance of a single atom contact. Last-step length histograms are observed with up to five for Fe and three for Cu peaks at integral multiples close to 0.075 nm, a subatomic distance. A model is proposed in terms of gliding from a fcc hollow-site t...

Purpose: Various kinematics and kinetics methods have been proposed for the assessment of jumping ability as a critical skill in professional volleyball players, but little is known about the accuracy and differences between these methods. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to answer the question “Is there any difference between the results of various kinetic methods in the asses...
