Analysis of The Hydraulic Jump On A Liquid Surface
In spite of the apparent complexity of the flow transition, application of simple analytic tools to a two dimensional analysis are effective in providing analytic results which closely parallel both field and laboratory results. Analysis shows:
- Height of the jump: the relationship between the depths before and after the jump as a function of flow rate
- Energy loss in the jump
- Location of the jump on a natural or an engineered structure
- Character of the jump: undular or abrupt

Famous quotes containing the words analysis of the, analysis, jump, liquid and/or surface:
“Cubism had been an analysis of the object and an attempt to put it before us in its totality; both as analysis and as synthesis, it was a criticism of appearance. Surrealism transmuted the object, and suddenly a canvas became an apparition: a new figuration, a real transfiguration.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“A commodity appears at first sight an extremely obvious, trivial thing. But its analysis brings out that it is a very strange thing, abounding in metaphysical subtleties and theological niceties.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“I wonder, Diz, if this Don Quixote hasn’t got the jump on all of us. Wonder if it isn’t a curse to go wised up like you and me.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
“Taking a good mouthful, I felt as though I had taken liquid fire; the tomato was chile colorado, or red pepper, of the purest kind. It nearly killed me, and I saw Gómez’ eyes twinkle for he saw that his share of supper was increased.”
—For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“In Manhattan, every flat surface is a potential stage and every inattentive waiter an unemployed, possibly unemployable, actor.”
—Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)
