Hydrostatic Forces on Plain and Curved Surfaces Hydrostatics provides fundamental insights key to some aspects of fluid mechanics, particularly in understanding Fluid Mechanics equations. Static fluids exert force on any submerged surface, and grasping this concept is crucial in the…
Water Treatment plays a crucial role in ensuring a clean and safe water for our daily use. There are two stages in water treatment namely primary water treatment, which primary involves the removal of large impurities and suspended solids, and…
Principles of Hydrostatic Pressure in Fluid Mechanics What is Hydrostatic Pressure in Fluid Mechanics Hydrostatic Pressure is the pressure exerted by a fluid at rest due to the force of gravity. It increases linearly with depth and acts equally in…
Soil Properties in Geotechnical Engineering Soil isn’t just dirt. It’s a complex composite material made up of solids, water, and air. Understanding the relationships between these three phases is fundamental to everything we do in geotechnical engineering, from foundation design…
Basic Fluid Properties Fluids, which include both liquids and gases, are fundamental in fluid mechanics, where their behavior is analyzed based on key properties that influence motion, pressure, and flow dynamics. These properties determine how fluids respond to external forces…
