Abstract

Utilizing the commutativity property of the Cartesian coordinate differential operators arising in the boundary conditions associated with the propagation of surface water waves against a vertical cliff, under the assumptions of linearized theory, the problem of obliquely incident surface waves is considered for solution. The case of normal incidence, handled by previous workers follow as a particular limiting case of the present problem, which exhibits a source/sink type behavior of the velocity potential at the shore-line. An independent method of attack is also presented to handle the case of normal incidence.
