The article discusses how to calculate the forces on boats when filling a navigation lock, which affects how quickly the lock can be filled. By analyzing data from physical and 1D models, researchers found a simple method to determine the maximum forces on vessels during lock filling. This method can help design new locks and increase the capacity of existing ones on the Elbe-Vltava Waterway in the Czech Republic.
