Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the experimental observations, collected previously in an extended project on culvert fishways with offset baffle, slotted weir baffle, weir baffle, spoiler baffle, Alberta fishweir, and fishbaffle systems. It has been found that a general correlation exists between the dimensionless discharge Q*=Q/(gS0D5) and the relative depth of flow (y0/D) for each value of the relative baffle height (h/D). Furthermore, for relative baffle heights in the practical range of 0.1–0.15, longitudinal baffle spacing should be limited to a maximum of D. The velocity field in the centerplane of each of these culvert fishways was analyzed and was found to be similar with the similarity profiles having different shapes for different baffle systems. A general correlation was also found for the normalized velocity scale. Even though most of the baffle systems worked reasonably well in the range of parameters recommended, the weir and slotted weir baffle systems are simpler yet equally effective. The results presented in this paper will hopefully facilitate the design and building of successful culvert fishways.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
