A video with Water on Both side of the wall , and we have to calculate the Maximum Bending Moment
Please

[@FluidMatters]

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't have a video with fluid on both sides of the gate, but see solved problem #5 in the Chapter 2 problem set: www.drdavidnaylor.net/problem-sets.html I hope that helps.

how should i judge which axis to take my second area moment on?

[@FluidMatters]

The second moment of area is ALWAYS taken about a horizontal axis passing through the centroid (center of area) of the gate.

[@daryljadoc9020]

How did you get the area? Can you please explain thank you :)

[@FluidMatters]

Gate is 2m high. Problem statement says that the gate 3 m (into the page). A=2x3=6m^2. I hope that helps.

please cover some complex problems on hydrostatic forces on planes and curved planes
