Dynamic force on a closing mitre gate
Mon, 2013-06-03 09:30 - Evad973
I'm looking at the design forces acting on a vertically hinged mitre gate for flow control in a canal, (open channel flow). We know the maximum volumetric flow rate of the water flow when the gate is closing. How can I estimate the maximum force exerted on the gate as the water causes it to slam shut.
