Laboratory study on stilling basin as an integral part of energy dissipator system

Water flow from upstream to downstream will create to high energy at the time when it reaches the downstream. This situation will cause damage or critical erosion at spillways toe, weir bed and downstream of river. In order to overcome this problem, the water flow velocity has to be reduced. The sol...
