Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes emergency spillways and the performance of three observed in Oklahoma during an October 1973 rainstorm. The author, a research leader in Water Conservation Structures, uses this data to help establish design criteria for stable, breach-proof spillways. A mathematical model is proposed that includes the hydrograph, spillway width, difference in elevation between the spillway crest and the stable downstream grade, and the erodibility characteristics of the soil and rock mass in the spillway profile. Historical accounts are referenced, with inclusion of graphs and illustrations to explain the testing process and results. This resource provides valuable insights for understanding the behavior of emergency spillways, ultimately ensuring the stability and safety of water retention structures.
