Overview
- A novel approach is used to present analytical solutions of the gradually-varied-flow (GVF) profiles by using the direct integration and Gaussian hypergeometric function (2F1)
- The 2F1-based solutions can henceforth play the role of the the varied-flow-function (VFF) table in the interpolation of the VFF-values used in the conventional method
- Both normal-depth- and critical-depth-based dimensionless GVF profiles are presented
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
