Navigation locks must have rapid and stable systems for filling and emptying; key considerations in designing these systems are inertia, cavitation and losses within conduit, and seiches, turbulence and overfilling within lock; analyses of these improve engineer's understanding and help him design for ever-increasing head differentials.
