INTRODUCTION
HYDRAULIC JUMP
Hydraulic jump is the natural phenomenon that always occurs at the open channel flow like river and spillway. This phenomenon occurred when a high velocity liquid discharge into a zone with a lower velocity of water that doesn’t have a slope steep enough to maintain the supercritical flow(high velocity liquid). The results, an abrupt rise occurred in the liquid surface. The rapidly flowing liquid will abruptly slowed and increase in height. This will converting the flow’s kinetic energy into potential energy, with some energy are permanently lost through confusion to heat. In an open channel flow, this demonstrated as the fast flow rapidly slowing and piling up on top of itself similar to how shockwave occurred. The smooth transition is possible in open channel flow from subcritical to supercritical flow, but it’s not possible the other way around.

SPILLWAY
Spillway is the structure build to provide for the controlled released of flow from a dam into a downstream area. Spillways also acted as the dam savior as it will not let the flood water overtop and damage the dammed by release the flood water. The relation between the hydraulics jump and spillway is that the spillway is usually placed in between the supercritical flow a subcritical flow.

CONTENT
Open-channel flow is classified according to steadiness, a condition in relation to time, uniformity, and a condition in relation to distance. Flow is steady when the velocity at any point of observation does not change with time. However if it changes with time, the flow is called unsteady. At

    Hydraulic fracturing is best defined as a stimulation process that is used in order to fully utilize the use of underground resources including oil, natural gas, geothermal energy and water. This method is used to enhance the flow of underground fractures to allow oil or natural gas to move more freely from rock pores to wells that bring up the resources to the surface. The whole process starts with having to build the proper and needed infrastructure which also includes the well construction. These Production wells are drilled in the vertical direction only, but can be paired with horizontal or directional sections. Vertical wells can be drilled hundreds or thousands of feet under the surface.…

    You may be wondering how the dam burst in the first place. Well according to McCullough there were many factors. The dam itself had many internal flaws, like the fact that it sagged a bit in the very middle of the dam where it needed to be the strongest, it would not have been noticeable to the regular eye though. The dam was part of the South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club, which was a prestigious summer, mountain club. It had members such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Clay Frick. The dam created a lake for the members of the club to go boating (which was very rare, especially in the mountains), but when the dam was being rebuilt for this club many things were overlooked. For example the fact that there was no way of controlling the amount of water it held, this meant that once they raised the level of the water there was no way to go back. There were also many small leaks that were overlooked, passed off as, “springs that came from near the ends of…

    A) The sudden closure of valve at the end of a pipeline cause sudden change in the water velocity which in turn creates a phenomenon called water hammer. The water in motion is forced to stop or change direction suddenly (momentum change) and a pressure wave propagates in the pipe. It 's also called hydraulic shock.…
