Effect of semi-circular baffle blocks on local scour downstream clear-overfall weirs

Local scour downstream hydraulic structures may result in damage or complete structural failure and loss of life and property. In this paper, an experimental study was conducted to predict the scour geometry downstream a Fayoum type weir and to minimize the scour using a row of semi-circular baffle...
