Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Model for End Depth Computations

Abstract

In this paper a feed-forward back-propagation type of neural network as well as the multi nonlinear regression model using statistical programming were used to determine the critical depth and discharge passing over the enddepth model, free overfall. This was achieved by training and validating (215) experimental data. The results of the trained verified and tested for neural network model are compared to the experimental measurements. There were well agreements with the measured values.
