    Question on calculating load on tidal movement

    I'm more of a mechanical individual looking for the short answer at this point. There is quite a bit more to this than I'm showing. I,ve engaged several consultant engineers at this point to no avail. So if there is not a short answer can you direct me to someone or a service capable of the...

    Calculating load for tidal movement

    Calculating wind load is wind speed squared x .00431 x area in sq. ft. A 5 mph wind with a vertical 100 sq. ft. wing is 10.77 lbs. The mass of salt water is around 854 times greater than the mass of air. Can you use the wind formula and multiply by 854? Does the weight of water at different...

    Question on calculating load on tidal movement

    Calculating wind load is windspeed x itself x.00431 x sq. ft. of area. A 100 sq.ft vertical wing in a five mph wind is 10.77 lbs. The mass of salt water is around 854 times that of air. Can you use the wind formula and multiply by 854? Also, does this change with the weight of water at different...
