WATER WAVES PRODUCED BY IMPULSIVE ENERGY SOURCES PART V: PROPAGATION.

Abstract

The propagation of waves in a cylindrically symmetric system is considered. The generating function is assumed known and may be one of the following forms: (1.) An initial displacement, (2.) An initial impulse, (3.) An initial shape and initial velocity distribution. Linear propagation theory is considered and a numerical integration procedure is developed for the evaluation of the well known Kranzer-Keller exact integral equations. Through this approach, it is possible to avoid the approximation R<<r, and the stationary phase approximation, both of which are inadequate in certain regions. (Author)
