342.A. Positive surge travelling upstream-Occurs on upstream of gate that is partly closed suddenly B. Positive surge travelling downstream-Occurs on downstream of gate that is partly open suddenly C. Negative surge travelling upstream-Occurs on upstream of gate that is partly open suddenly D. Negative surge travelling downstream-Occurs on downstream of gate that is partly closed suddenly

343.relate to water surface profiles in gradually varied flow of an open channel.

M₁ and S₁ curves meet y₀ line asymptotically and tend to be horizontal as y - ∞

C₁ and C₃ curves will be slightly curved if Chezy's equation is used.

Otherwise, they tend to be straight lines.

hydrostatic state and the deviatoric component. Then magnitude of the

hydrostatic state pressure is given by
