Description

Explore the mathematical foundations of wave motion with this comprehensive text from the Wiley Classics Library. This book provides an integrated account of how waves move in liquids with a free surface when subjected to gravitational and other forces. By utilizing both potential and linear wave equation theories, it offers a deep look into the physics of oceanography and hydrodynamics. Readers can apply advanced mathematical methods to real-world problems, including Laplace and Fourier transform methods, conformal mapping, and complex variable techniques. The text also covers integral equations and methods employing a Green's function. Whether you are studying fundamental hydrodynamics, waves on sloping beaches, or problems involving waves in shallow water, this volume serves as a detailed resource. It even extends into practical applications such as the motion of ships, making it a valuable asset for those studying Earth Sciences and mathematical physics.
