..., a design method for this type of energy dissipatoris proposed. The flowconditions in the basin are improved witha central baffle sill. An extensive experimental investigation was carried out in orderto define themost adequate sill geometry and location. The proposed design method may he considered...

... structure successfully by this method, but only after and the method usedis described. The dock sill, which supports a cantilever flap dock gate, was also dependenton prestressed anchors for stability, but pressure relief couldnot be used inthis case and the alternativemethods adopted are described...
