Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV) was used in determining the magnitude of velocity across various segments of the channel due to flow vegetationâ�� interaction. The effect of vegetative roughness on flow velocity, Manningâ��s resistance, and velocity profiles were investigated. Results revealed the changes in the normal parabolic velocity profile to nearly flat in the streamwise direction. Ä°t was also observed that the Manningâ��s coefficient generally decreases with rise in velocity of flow, and it increases with increase in the fractional flow depths, as the grass was completely submerged. Thus, the relationships and nâ��V curve obtained could be use in proper design of grassed channels. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2021. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 6th International Conference on Civil, Offshore and Environmental Engineering, ICCOEE 2020 ; Conference Date: 13 July 2021 Through 15 July 2021; Conference Code:253689
