Figure 1. Channel geometry elements used in the
analysis of open channel flow.
Figure-2. Energy elements used in the analysis
of open channel flow.-.
Figure 3.. Stage-discharge rating curve-for Oak
Creek, near Corvallis, Oregon.
Figure 4. Conceptualized view of the velocity
distribution in a natural channel:
(A) as a series of contour lines
connecting points of equal velocity,
and (B) as a series of channel seg-
ments, each with its own mean velocity
Figure 5. Subdivision of a cross section into a
series of channel segments, each with
geometric elements particular to the
channel segment.
Figure 6. Segmented channel with the mean velocity
of each segment measured at each of three
different discharges to establish a
velocity-discharge rating for the segment.
Figure 7. S-shaped rating curve resulting from
plotting stage versus discharge over
a very wide range of flows..
Figure 8. Rating curve loop typically resulting-
from the movement. of bed materials in
alluvial channels. After Simons, 1976.

river discharge for Oak Creek near-
Corvallis, Oregon.
