Variables Used

Correction Factor - Correction Factor adjusts theoretical models to better reflect real conditions. This factor accounts for variables like water table fluctuations, and wave impacts that influence subsurface pressure.
Water Surface Elevation - (Measured in Meter) - Water Surface Elevation directly impacts the magnitude and distribution of hydrostatic pressure acting on submerged structures, such as seawalls, offshore platforms.
Mass Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Mass Density is crucial for understanding the distribution of pressures exerted by overlying soil or water layers on underground structures like foundations, tunnels, or pipelines.
Pressure Response Factor - Pressure Response Factor quantifies how the pore pressure within the soil or rock changes in response to changes in applied stress.
Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure is the force exerted by water or other fluids beneath the earth's surface or within coastal areas.
Depth below the SWL of Pressure Gauge - (Measured in Meter) - Depth below the SWL of Pressure Gauge it determines the subsurface pressure the gauge measures, which is essential for understanding the pressure exerted by the water column above the gauge.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Water Surface Elevation: 19.2 Meter --> 19.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Mass Density: 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Pressure Response Factor: 1.32 --> No Conversion Required
Pressure: 800 Pascal --> 800 Pascal No Conversion Required
Depth below the SWL of Pressure Gauge: 49.906 Meter --> 49.906 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

f = η*ρ*[g]*k/(P_ss+(ρ*[g]*z)) --> 19.2*997*[g]*1.32/(800+(997*[g]*49.906))
