Waves in Ship Tanks. Part 3. A Resonant Wave Absorber

Abstract

This memorandum describes a new type of resonant wave absorber for ship tanks. It can be tuned for optimum performance at any prescribed wavelength, and is generally more effective than the sloping, slatted, beach which it replaces. Keywords: Beaches; Wave propagation; Waves; Fluid mechanics; Ship tanks. (kt)
