Now- a -days the hydraulic structures are designed. Keeping in view the flow net, this was given by __________________?
Correct answer: C. Khosla
- A. Blight
- B. Lane
- C. Khosla
- D. Darcy
Explanation
Khosla developed the theory of seepage flow and used flow nets to analyse hydraulic structures, including uplift pressure and exit gradients. Darcy's law describes flow through porous media, but it is not the named design approach referred to here.
