abstract bottom rack intake is one of the most appropriate structures for diverting water in steep rivers. the problems of corrosion, deformity and clogging of the bottom racks in long term, inspires a new system of bottom intake in which a filled trench of porous media is replaced by the bottom racks. diversion of a specified amount of discharge through the porous media when void space in the ...

abstract bottom intake is one of the most appropriate systems for diverting discharge in steep rivers. bottom intake with porous media is a new system of diverting discharge which can be replaced by bottom rack intakes. to investigate the hydraulic flow characteristics on diverted discharge of this intake, an experimental model was designed in which the inflow, diverted discharge and remained f...

abstract bottom rack intake is one of the most popular structures used for diverting water in mountain region. corrosion and rotten problems of bottom racks inspire the introduction of a new system of bottom intake in which a porous media is replaced by the bottom rack. obviously, clogging and reduction of diverted discharge are the most important problems in this new system, too. in this paper...

hydro-induction sediment discharge technique (hsdt) aims to prevent reservoir sedimentation by withdrawing the discharge water from the reservoir bottom to suck up and discharge sediments, and by inducing vertical vortexes and undercurrents in the reservoir bay to keep sediments agitated and moving. the technique is facilitated with an innovative discharge conduit system having bottom intakes t...

Bottom intake is an intake structure which can be considered as an alternative for regular intakes in mountain streams Water in in taking from river are very vast and complicated issues, each project has special characteristics which should be considered. Water intake from riveris generally based on Pump and gravity method. The gravity method is more useful and common because of continuity and ...

BACKGROUND Animal welfare and accurate data collection are equally important in rodent research. Housing influences study outcomes and can challenge studies that monitor feeding, so housing choice needs to be evidence-based. The goal of these studies was to (1) compare established measures of well-being between rodents housed in wire grid-bottom floors with a resting platform compared to solid-...
