UNLABELLED The limit of the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex is defined genetically, based on a strongly supported clade within the Colletotrichum ITS gene tree. All taxa accepted within this clade are morphologically more or less typical of the broadly defined C. gloeosporioides, as it has been applied in the literature for the past 50 years. We accept 22 species plus one subspec...

weirs have widely been used for the flow measurement, flow diversion and its control in the open channels. attempts have been made to study flow over different shapes of normal weirs, side weirs and oblique weirs. this paper is connected with the development of the discharge coefficient measurement. in the present study four different weirs in different height are considered for validation purp...

Different construction materials with different roughness used to make circular weirs highly affect surface roughness and, in turn, flow hydraulics passing over these structures.  In the present research, numerous experiments under different hydraulic conditions were performed on a physical model to study the effects of roughness on flow hydraulics over a circular weir. The flow hydraulics incl...

The Piano Key weir (PKW) is a hydraulically attractive alternative to linear overflow weirs, increasing the unit discharge for similar heads and spillway widths. This advantage allows operating dam reservoirs on an increased level and provides thereby an enhanced retention volume. It is a result of the non-linear nature of PKWs being folded back and forth to make repeating cycles or keys. As PK...

Labyrinth spillways are considered as suitable and economic structures because, firstly, their discharge flow rate, under low hydraulic heads, is high, and secondly, they occupy less space. The flow over these spillways is three-dimensional and is influenced by several parameters. This study endeavors to offer a new equation for the calculation of the discharge flow of triangular labyrinth spil...

Scour in bed material downstream weirs is considered the most unfavorable process which threats the overall stability of the weir. Weirs with oblique angle in the horizontal plan will affect the scour profile downstream the structure and may reduce it. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of oblique weir angle on the scour profile. Furthermore, the effect of V-notch angle on...

Orifice-weir structures at ditch outlets are proposed to reduce peak drainage rates during high flows and to store water during the growing season in poorly drained managed pine plantations. Two coastal watersheds, one conventionally drained (D1) and another with an orifice-weir outlet (D3), were monitored to examine the effects of this orifice treatment on drainage outflows and nutrient export...

In this present article, we studied the transmission, refraction and focusing properties of one, two and three dimensional labyrinth based left-handed metamaterials. We demonstrated that the proper periodic arrangement of labyrinth structures and wires results in left-handed transmission. By using a two dimensional labyrinth based left-handed slab, it is shown that it is possible to image the f...

The three parts of the inner ear have been reviewed: the membranous (endolymph containing) labyrinth surrounded by the osseous (perilymph containing) labyrinth, and the otic capsule of bone that encases the osseous labyrinth. This is a brief survey of the normal anatomy, but one must always remember that the hallmark of the temporal bone is variation.
