The Effects of a Jet-Like Current on Gravity Waves in Shallow Water

Authors: C. C. Mei; E. Lo; MASSACHUSETTS INST OF TECH CAMBRIDGE DEPT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING
Abstract:
The effects of a strong current with horizontal shear on shallow water waves is studied. For jet-like currents, the existence of trapped waves and the reciprocity of scattering coefficients are pointed out. Detailed consequences of current dimensions and intensity on waves are analyzed for a top-hat current. ANNOTATION: Reprint: The Effects of a Jet-Like Current on Gravity Waves in Shallow Water.
