Abstract
As part of the program of the Hydraulic Research Committee of the Hydraulics Division, a Subcommittee on Cavitation in Hydraulic Structures was appointed in the summer of 1942. Its first objective was to summarize the facts of cavitation which are pertinent to civil engineering problems and to bring to the attention of the profession certain experiences with the phenomenon. It was decided that this objective could best be attained by the presentation of a Symposium where there would be opportunity for others, by discussion, to report their experiences and thus bring additional facts to light. In this way the store of knowledge could be increased and assembled in convenient form for civil engineering use. The Symposium developed logically into a single paper containing a summary of facts and theories, followed by three papers on practical experiences with cavitation.
