About this document
Hydrostatic Forces on Submerged Surfaces by carlosoteloo71 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document defines hydrostatic forces and describes how to calculate them acting on submerged surfaces. It provides formulas to derive the total hydrostatic force based on pressure, area, and depth of submergence. It also describes how to calculate the location of the total force, known as the center of pressure. Several example problems are worked through demonstrating how to apply the formulas to calculate the total force magnitude and location for different shapes, like rectangular and triangular gate
