This document discusses the design of open channel sections to convey water flow in the most economical way. It examines rectangular, trapezoidal, triangular, and circular channel cross-sections. For rectangular channels, the most economical section is when the base width is twice the flow depth. For trapezoidal channels, the most economical section is when the side slopes are at an angle of 60 degrees from horizontal and the half top width is equal to the flow depth. Empirical flow equations like Chezy's and Manning's formulas are also presented to estimate normal flow velocities based on hydraulic radius and channel slope.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

7. DESIGN OF CHANNELS
Channels are very important in Engineering projects
especially in Irrigation and, Drainage.
Channels used for irrigation are normally called canals
Channels used for drainage are normally called drains.
8. MOST EFFICIENT SECTION
During the design stages of an open channel, the
channel cross-section, roughness and bottom slope
are given.
The objective is to determine the flow velocity, depth
and flow rate, given any one of them. The design of
channels involves selecting the channel shape and
bed slope to convey a given flow rate with a given
roughness, the designer aims to minimize
flow depth. For a given discharge, slope and
the
cross-sectional area A in order to reduce
construction costs
9. The most ‘efficient’ cross-sectional shape is determined for uniform flow
conditions. Considering a given discharge Q, the velocity V is maximum
for the minimum cross-section A. According to the Manning equation the
hydraulic diameter is then maximum.
It can be shown that:
1.the wetted perimeter is also minimum,
2.the semi-circle section (semi-circle having its centre in the surface)
is the best hydraulic section
Because the hydraulic radius is equal to the water cross section area
divided by the wetted parameter, Channel section with the least wetted
parameter is the best hydraulic section
10. RECTANGULAR SECTION
For a rectangular section
Q=AV, where Q=discharge through the
channel,
A=area of flow. V=velocity

flowing in the channel.
For Q to be maximum ,V needs to be
maximum, Since A = constant.

Hence, a triangular channel section will be the most
economical when each of its sloping sides make an angle
of 450 with the vertical and R = 0.356 y.
46. Problem. A triangular channel section, whose sides include anangle of 600,
conveys water at a uniform depth of 0.25 m. If the discharge is 0.04 m3/s ec,
determine the gradient of the trough (bed slope). Use C = 52.

49. Problem. Achannel 0.9 m wide has vertical sides and bottom is V-shaped,
the angle of the V being 120o. If the depth of water flowing along the channel
measured from the bottom of the V is 0.6 m. Calculate the flow in liters/sec, when
the bed has a slope of 1in 1200. Find the depth of water in the channel for the same
flow when the V has silted up so that the bottom of the channel is now level and
the slope of the bed remains unchanged. Take C = 55.
