Scattering of oblique waves in a two-layer fluid
preprint
posted on 2006-01-24, 18:24 authored by Christopher LintonChristopher Linton, Jonathan R. CadbyWe consider problems based on linear water wave theory concerning the interaction
of oblique waves with horizontal cylinders in a fluid consisting of a layer of finite depth
bounded above by a free surface and below by an infinite layer of fluid of greater density.
For such a situation time-harmonic waves can propagate with two different wavenumbers
K and k. The particular problems of wave scattering by a horizontal circular
cylinder in either the upper or lower layer are solved using multipole expansions.
