Weirs are important hydraulic structures widely used to control the flow rates in open
channels and rivers. As a remarkable parameter, the discharge coefficient (Cd) determines …

Weirs are hydraulic structures with various applications, such as flow measurement, flow
diverting, and/or flow control. Labyrinth weir as a nonlinear weir with a folded crest …

Weirs serve the dual purpose of flow measurement and flow regulation in open channels. In
the past, weirs of improved plan form have been used to increase the discharge through the …

Laboratory experiments were carried out to study the hydraulics of flow over rectangular
labyrinth weirs in both free and submerged flow conditions. In order to study the effects of …

Labyrinth weirs can increase the flow discharge capacity for a specific head and width by
increasing the weir length. This paper studies the flow behavior of labyrinth weirs using Flow …

The classical sharp-crested weirs are not suitable to implement in irrigation canals with high
suspended sediment flow. Over the time, sediment deposition occurs in the upstream of …

The effects of geometrical parameters (crest height, number of cycles, and plan weir
configuration), are investigated experimentally on labyrinth weirs, over a range of headwater …

For a given width, a labyrinth weir has a developed crest length, thereby increasing the flow
capacity for a given upstream headwater. This paper experimentally studies the flow over …

One of the approaches to reduce flood depth in dams and rivers is the application labyrinth
weirs instead of simple linear weirs. Labyrinth weirs have a longer length than linear weirs; …

Soft Computing Techniques (SCT) are extensively used to estimate Labyrinth Weir's (LW)
flow-rate. Due to the multiplicity of these techniques, identifying the most competent SCT is …
