Gabions are structures that control the erosion and scouring whilst provide an eco-friendly and sustainable solution, used also for energy loss. Despite a wide range of previous studies, different hydraulic aspects of gabions have not yet been understood well. In that sense, this study investigates the behavior of hydraulic parameters of solid and gabion inclined drops. The results indicated that with increasing the relative critical depth in both types, the relative energy loss reduces. A comparison between solid and gabion inclined drops showed that the relative energy loss and downstream relative depth increases by 82% and 50%, respectively. In all cases, downstream Froude number of the gabion inclined drop range is reduced from 4.17–8.52 to 1.28–2.64. Finally, equations to estimate main hydraulic parameters due to the use of gabion inclined drops and proper discussions about their effect on the sustainability of water infrastructures are presented.

石笼网是控制侵蚀和冲刷的结构，同时提供生态友好和可持续的解决方案，也用于能量损失。尽管之前的研究范围很广，但石笼网的不同水力方面尚未得到很好的理解。从这个意义上说，本研究调查了固体和石笼斜滴的水力参数的行为。结果表明，随着两种类型的相对临界深度的增加，相对能量损失减少。实心和石笼斜滴的比较表明，相对能量损失和下游相对深度分别增加了 82% 和 50%。在所有情况下，石笼网斜降范围的下游弗劳德数从 4.17-8.52 减少到 1.28-2.64。最后，
