چکیده
This paper reviews the work of Keshava Munhy and collaborators in the area of proportional weirs. It brings forlh the lacuna that existed in the theory of weirs and focusses on why there was need a for a generalized theory of ,,"'(irs. It oullines the theorem of slope discharge continuity developed, emphasizing the importance of a datum or reference plane for every weir. It explains briefly the mathematical theory developed and its application to the design of several imponant weirs having wide application. The theory and application of geometrically simple weirs is briefly outlined.

Of the many hydraulic structures developed by man, the weir is perhaps the oldest. Weirs are used for the measurement of discharge and regulation of water flow. The most common types of weirs are broad-crested, sharp-crested, circular-crested and cylindrical, and ogee crest weirs. Advantage of the circular-crested and cylindrical weir compared to the other weirs include simplicity of design, st...

Free crest spillways are hydraulically efficient and safe in operation. Since their discharge capacity is directly proportional to the crest length several types have been developed with the purpose to increase the length of the latter. Among these types traditional labyrinth weir spillways have been studied and used for a long time. Their hydraulic performance and the effect of the involved ge...

Measurement of discharge in open channels is one of the main concerns in hydraulic engineering. The structures used for this aim should be accurate, economical and easy to use. Weirs are among the oldest and most convenient hydraulic structures that have been used in both laboratory and field for flow measurement in open channels. Due to limitations of simple sharp crested weirs, recently compo...
