it's interesting that academia likes harping on his art and political patronage to the ruling families, his war machines and concept flying contraptions, but they never talk about his enduring practical and essential inventions we still use daily. it's almost like they want to relegate him to the past, instead of embracing his contributions to the level of einstein or newton, when in reality he contributed much more to how we live our everyday life than they did

My dad did maintenance on the Panama canal and told me the motors to swing the lock gates were not powerful. He said the gates were so well balanced that a man could open and close them. The powerful unit was the mule engine that pulled the ship through the locks. The big maintenance item is keeping the upper part of the canal dedged

@@adamg2960 Because they didn't. The chinese invented the pound lock, they did not invent the mitre lock. That is, they were the fist to have a canal with two doors on either end of a chambre used to raise or lower the water level. The chinese used hanging gates 300 years before the birth of Da vinci, these were shown as the "old" gates in the video. The difference is that the mitre lock is a pound lock that uses.... a mitre gate. Saying the chinese invented the mitre lock is like saying the wright brothers invented the passenger jet. A jet is a type of plane, but a plane is not necessarily a jet. The wright brothers invented the plane, not the jet. (yes, there is a bit of dispute, some claim others had the first flight, but you get my point) Now, Da Vinci is not confirmed to be the inventor of the mitre lock. But most historians agree it originated from italy. Bertola da Novate is an italian engineer who is sometimes considered a contender for it's invention. There are no sources that give any reason to believe it was invented in china that I am aware of. If you have sources that give any reason to believe mitre gates were invented in china, please add them One unfortunate thing that may mislead people is that because miter gates are standard nowadays, most graphics depicting pound locks use mitre gates. This means if an article is writing about, lets say, the invention of pound gates, if they don't bother creating their own graphics they will likely simply reuse another graphic of how pound locks work that include miter locks. A good example is the wikipedia page for the Grand Canal. They use two graphics of pound locks utilizing miter gates to show how pound locks work. While these graphics give a good view of how pound locks work, they include features that were added hundreds of years later. These graphics are accurate to how the locks work on the Grand Canal work today, but not how they worked 300 years before da vinci. That canal was improved over the years

If they are part of the gates, how are they opened from the canal bank? Opening them against strong water pressure must be difficult too. If not, why not?

I have been around miter lock operations most of my life and have yet to see one that is watertight, no matter the level on the upstream side. It is theoretically possible, of course, with the right sealing materials installed, but in practice, that free joint in the middle is not constructed _that_ perfectly no matter how much pressure is applied. The leakage is generally not significant, so it is still the most useful design, but It is a very different construction type than, say, a precision airlock on a space capsule.

yeah watertight is a bit of a superfluous detail. truly watertight mostly comes down to a matter of maintenance since a soft rubber could seal completely but would require regular replacement since every time the join flexes under the pressure cracking and wear also grows in the material. The real trick is that the pressure on that joint is able to be so large you can use quite hard materials as the seal (such as steel or other metals) which have much more favourable wear characteristics compared to most water sealing materials. The pressure also helps to reduce tolerances for things like squareness of the two doors and surface roughness at the joint (though they do still have a pretty tight tolerance for straightness at the meeting edge and parallelness of the two meeting faces) In leonardo's time of course they didn't have so many options for materials and the only options for a water seal for that use case would have been wood or a soft metal like copper which means high pressure joints were the only option available to stop a notable leak. Nowadays most locks play with the wiggle room that a small leak is perfectly tolerable in their use case and so they leverage that to reduce maintenance costs meaning most do still let some water through

I've lived in several places along the Trent-Severn Waterway in Ontario, Canada. I can walk to one of them in 5 minutes. Most of those locks operate on these same principles, taking into account modernization of machinery and maintenance. It is a 386 km route with 45 locks. Also it's through some of the prettiest scenery available in central Ontario. The same can be said for the Rideau Canal system locations. That one is just over 200 km in total, using 29 locks. Because they are no longer of use by commercial boating, and are for recreational boating, the staff are super accommodating to explain how everything works. It's simpler than I first imagined. Brilliant use of the water to do the work.

This was great to watch and da Vinci was certainly a gifted artist, engineer, etc. During the video I got a memory trigger of something else that always intrigued me in terms of achieving a water-tight seal in order to hold back a large body of water. That is, the door/seal system on a dock, or dry-dock, to be precise. We've all seen a picture of a vessel in a dry-dock under construction, or in for maintenance, cleaning, etc. Here, the fluid dynamics seem in contrast to that of a river flow, pushing against the angled gate faces, using the flow force to achieve the seal (as shown in the video). Instead, the sea is 'flat' against the dock gate. How is this achieved safely and reliably, anyone? Thanks.

Leonardo da Vinci was a genus. I can be creative, but he takes it to a whole new level. Practical thinking. Did you know that he even made the first robot? It was like a car that would wind up. He could program it do a set of commands as it moved along. Simple pre-loaded commands like. Going down 50 feet. Turn right and go down 20 and so on. He used ropes that were cut to lengths that would correspond with the distance he wanted it to move. It was all fascinating.

It's used in Northern Germany, Danmark and the Netherland in the creation of new lamd from the sea. Your main problem when living under the sea level is what you do with rain water since it can't flow out. It's possible though with the tidal range with this doors you let the water flow out in ebb and stop the water when it flows back when the flood comes. It's also the way to get the land dry in the first place.

It's so interesting when people find ways to use natural forces against itself. There was a relatively new invention just recently, it's basically a sturdy piece of plastic shape like an L, long end face down, so when water goes over it, the weight of the water will push the long side down, forcing the shorter end to stay up and using gravity to create a very strong barrier for water. They use it as an emergency barrier to block areas from flooding, since they stack nicely and are easy to deploy, like traffic cones. Better than sandbags, and at a fraction of the weight, plus much less time spent setting it up instead of digging a ditch or piling dirt.

Neither was Leonardo master of all. What made Leonardo different is that he was not yet subject to the division of labor and hyperspecialization that now governs society. His intellectual ability was that of similar people in his position. Polymaths weren't that uncommon during the peak of the Italian Renaissance as the Nobility, the Church and Merchants were all in constant struggle to control society and thus neither ultimately controlled it fully. This allowed sufficiently wealthy people to study and practice as they saw fit or needed rather than prostitute themselves to one particular task for the benefit of one of these sectors for the rest of their lives. We could have Renaissance men again without much issue, the point of technology and knowledge is that it ultimately makes people more productive than the generations prior. You don't need to reinvent the gear or deduce Archimedes' law from scratch. Leonardo took a lifetime to reach his peak in art and material science because he had to collect that knowledge through experience and collecting rare books. Nowadays it only takes a few years for someone to match him, granted one has the resources, time and access to knowledge to do it, which is rare. The promise of the industrial revolution and the Renaissance were that. No longer would you have to dedicate most of your life to tending to your crops as a peasant or serving your guild master as an apprentice. Mechanization would mean less work hours and more studying to improve society further. Unfortunately, the rulers simply saw mechanization as a way to make their lifestyle cheaper and more plentiful.

@@siraethelwulf8914 I am not sure completely what thy point is. Was it that powers were divided between multiple factions back then and today its not? Because we may call them something else but it is still basically the nobility (old money) the merchant (new money) and the church (moral crusaders) who are in charge. Is it that there aren't people with the resources to just dedicate their lives to studying different subjects, because we have plenty of that. We don't even have to be rich anymore. Its just, most choose to spend their leisure time watching tv or writing dumb comments on youtube (I am referring mostly to myself here) then they are to pushing the boundaries of human knowledge. Because that is why I think we can't have polymaths anymore, a polymath is someone who is an expert, someone who have contributed something important to human knowledge in several fields. A Renaissance man is different from being a jack of all trade, because a Renaissance man is a master in many crafts, while a jack of all trades are competent in many but master in none

Great explainer. You mentioned the sluice doors but then nothing more on them, though. How do they open, close, not leak?

So, the older design worked against gravity. Da Vinci's design works against H2O friction.

I live near two major lock systems in North America and visit them often. Can confirm that there is some leakage, it is not a perfect seal.

Just goes to show, just because they lived long ago, doesn't mean they were stupid. That lesson applies to the founders of America as well. So many think they know better because they were born later.

I think it would be the grand "calculation" of the universe. But do the ven diagram, you are also a part of the millions still living, so you put yourself in the awkward math situation of your life worth in a contradictory position. By living, you have a worth by the very nature. ipsofacto.

Da Vinci was incredible, but let’s not forget the incredible engineers the keep working in the design. Making the doors more buoyant is genius in itself, along with the gear mechanism. It’s a both a shame and a gift to have Da Vinci be born before the modern day. He could have done so much with technology today, but at the same time we get to see how brilliance transcends time
