What is Hydrostatic Forces on Curved Surfaces about?
Hydrostatic forces act perpendicular to submerged surfaces. The pressure and force at each point is calculated by integrating over the entire surface. For curved surfaces, the projected area in different directions is used to calculate horizontal and vertical forces. The line of action of the net force passes through the centroid of the displaced fluid volume. Examples show calculating the forces and line of action on a hemispherical surface submerged in water.
