Macro-turbulent characteristcs of pressures in hydraulic jump formed downstream of a stepped spillway
ABSTRACT Stilling basins are structures built at the base of the spillway to dissipate energy, by means of a hydraulic jump. Hydraulic jump is a turbulent phenomenon that causes large pressure fluctuation in the stilling basin bottom, and can damage the sink structure through mechanisms such as fati...
