Wall-bounded turbulence manifests itself in a broad range of applications, not least in hydraulic systems. Here, we briefly review the significant advances over the past few decades in the fundamental study of wall turbulence over smooth and rough surfaces, with an emphasis on coherent structures and their role at high Reynolds numbers. We attempt to relate these findings to parallel efforts in...

Measuring sensitivity of hydraulic structures is considered as an approach for evaluation of water projects performance, due to lower distribution efficiency in Irrigation and Drainage project schemes. Sensitivity analysis approach for irrigation structures is one of flow analysis methods which are developed in recent years in order to measure the behavior of flow in hydraulic structures in an ...

The hydraulic jump has been studied as an important method for energy dissipation downstream water structures. Several methods have been used to optimize the hydraulic jump length. One of the common methods was the use of end sill. Steps may be used to control the location of the hydraulic jump downstream of hydraulic structures. Extensive studies have been conducted to investigate the effect o...
