Introduction. Thin barriers. Vertical thick barriers. Floating dock. Surface discontinuities. Long horizontal cylinder. Two- layer fluid. Variable bottom topography.
Birendra Nath Mandal, Soumen De
"The two authors study the linearised theory of water waves. The
linearised theory of water waves assumes that the amplitude of the
motion is small compared to the wave length. A large number of
boundary conditions such as scattering by thin barriers, scattering
by rectangular trench and scattering by a semi-in nite dock are
investigated. Energy identities are also covered as well as
variable bottom topography. In all cases the dispersion relations
are discussed in detail. All the details of the calculations are
provided. So the authors emphasize the mathematical and
computational techniques. An exhaustive reference list is also
provided. The book cannot only be recommended for researchers, but
also for graduate students."
