Abstract
The roll waves in open-channel flow on steep slopes can strike an obstacle with great force. We conducted two-dimensional shallow-water simulations to study the impact force of the waves against structures of various shapes and orientations. The focus is on the front runner of a wave packet developed from spatial instability. The numerical results include the stand-off distance of the bow shock wave, the front face's run-up height and the wave force on the obstacle. The strength of the impact depends on the Froude number of the undisturbed flow and the obstacle's distance from the local disturbance but not much on the form of the perturbation that initiates the instability. The wave force could reach a peak of more than an order of magnitude greater than the force on the structure without the roll waves. However, an obstacle with a sharp and pointy front can deflect the incident waves, significantly reducing the impact force.

Full frame distilled prediction
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
