Abstract
In this study, a two-dimensional physical model was used to evaluate the effectiveness of adding baffles and sills at step edges or of shifting them from step edges of a 1V:1H sloping, short, sharp- or round-crested stepped spillway with an ogee inlet. A comparison between different configurations of baffles and sills was carried out with respect to the energy dissipation and the flow characteristics. The baffle-shifted round-crested spillway gives the smallest discharge required for the onset of a skimming flow among all other configurations. The baffle-edged chute dissipates more energy than the sill-edged spillway. Shifting baffles or sills from the sharp edges decreases the energy dissipation. Shifting baffles or sills from the round-crested spillway increases the energy dissipation in the range of the discharges studied. Empirical equations for energy dissipation are introduced for practical application of spillways of comparable similar conditions.

Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
