SYNOPSIS
, This paper is concerned with the linear theory of wave resistance
experienced by any distribution of surface pressure moving at a constant speed of advance on the surface of deep or shallow water. The theory developed is of some interest because of the obvious connection between a pressure distribution a Lid a small fast motor boat, but the analysis does not however include spray, the generation of which is independent of gravity. Whilst surface waves are not the immediate object they have
been analysed theoretically in one or two rather partictilar and
restric-ted cases.
The exact problem is by its nature a hard one because the solction depends upon finding a potential function which satisfies, among others, a certain non-linear boundary condition at the free surface whose shape is not given, but which must be determined as part of the solution.
The linearized problem of the deep water case is an-old one and
dates back to Kelvin who examined the waves produced by a concentrated
pressure point by regarding the displacement
of a point in the free
sur-face as due to a series of pressure impulses applied along the course of the pressure point and behind it. In this analysis Kelvin made use of his theory of stationary phase.In a series of papers, published in the Proc. Roy. Soc.London, Have-lock has examined the wave .resistance experienced by different types -of
pressure distributions whilst some of his papers also deal with the wave motion. Use is made in these papers of an artifice, originally due to Ray-leigh, which consists in assuming that the fluid has a slight amount of
friction proportional to the relative velocity. The integrals concerned give then a solution which corresponds to the surface waves trailing aft of the disturbance. This hypothetical law of friction is not professed to be
altogether a natural one, but it represents in a rough way the effect of small dissipative forces and it. has furthermore the mathematical conven-ience that it does not interfere with the irrotational cl-...iracter of the motion. The frictional coefficient is however, only retained in the intermediate ana-lysis to a degree sufficient to attain its chief purp...)&e, and is made zero in
the final result, thus indicating that it is not important that the hypothetical law of friction should be an absolutely natural one.
Hogner examined in some papers the waves produced by a concen-trated pressure point moving on the surface of deep water -by-making use of the method of steepest descents. The same author obtained, in a later
paper, an expression of the wave resistance experienced by a pressure
distribution by direct integration of the horizontal component of the pres-sure which acts on the distribution.
In a recent paper Peters re-examined the waves produced by a
con-centrated pressure point moving at constant speed of advance on the sur-face of deep water.
Mentioned should also be made of the papers by Lamb, Terazawa, Green, Weinblum, Inui, and Andersson. (See the list of reference at the
end of the paper. )
It is then found that the problems are, to a. certain extent,
indetermi-nate in so far as we get waves in front of the pressure distribution as
well as to the rear. On this solution we then find it necessary to
su-perpose a freely moving double pattern in such a way as to cancel out approximately the wave motion at a distance in advance of the
distri-bution leaving waves only to the rear, the combined result being the practical solution. It is, however. indicated in two appendices at the end of the paper, that we may obtain the velocity potential for steady motion by considering .a pressure distribution started from rest and made to move With constant speed of advance. This method gives
fur-thermore the practical solution at once with waves only to the rear of
the pressure distribution.
In the course of the analysis it is, because of certain reasons .
suggested that we may not be able to determine what influence
a
rea-sonable small variation of the wave profile along a ship will have on the .wave resistance even-if the wave profile could be measured with great accuracy.The paper does, not deal with the theory ofwave resistance for displacement ships'. This theory has been examined in a number of
papers by Havelock whilst Wigley has compared measured and
calcu-lated resistance for different models. The theory of wave resistance for displacement ships has -also recently been examined by Lunde ina paper to be published in the Transactions of the Society of Naval Archi-tects and Marine Engineers.
1. Velocity .Potential in the Case of Deep Water.
Let the x- and y-axis of a right hand, orthogonal, and fixed re-ference frame be in thefree surface of a moving body of inviscid and incompressible water with the z-axis directed vertically upwards. Suppose that the water, which fills the space z < 0, is moving in thenegative direction of the x-axis with a constant velocity c.
Let ps be
the intensity of the pressure distribution applied on the free surface within the area nand let the surface pressure be zero outside cl .
The motion which is 'assumed to be irrotational is given by the velocity potential , where
(1.10) = cx +.0 (x, y, z)
In this equation cx is the velocity potential of the Uniform stream and (x, y, z) is the velocity potential of the disturbance due to the pres-sure distribution, thus the components' u, v, -w of the perturbation are given by - ckx,
in the x-, y-, z-direction respectively.
Physical considerations suggest, that the presence of a- distri-bution of pressure over the limited area on the surface of the moving water will produce negligible effect on the velocity potential cx at
suffi-cient great distance upstream. The pressure equation may accordingly be written

that their squares may be neglected in the comparison with the other terms in the pressure 'equation we get

This is the usual approximate expression for the condition that a fluid particle in the free surface moves with a normal velocity equal
the normal velocity of the free surface. From the last equation- we
have that (1:11) may be transformed to
inside n , and (1
li) to
(1. 15) + K. = 0
for points on the free surface outside n , and where Ko = gic2 . Both
(1.14) and (1.15) express the condition to be satisfied at the free surface
but to the approximations accepted these conditions may be regarded as
fulfilled at the average free surface, that is for z = 0.
As physical considerations also suggest, that we have no waves at
a large distance in front of the distribution, we must have

which is the equation of continuity of an incompressible fluid in irrota-tional motion.
We note that by neglecting small quantities of second order in the different conditions the problem has been linearized. It should, however,
be realised that arbitrarily small causes may produce finiteeffects in
hydrodynamics, but this can hardly be accepted as universal. if this was so, since every physical experiment is actually affected by countless minute influences, we should have no chance of ever to predict correct-ly the result of any specific experiment. Since the results of many
ex-periments can, however, be predicted with practical certainty it is prob-ably not an universal principle, but is preaurnable restricted to certain

-We also note that it is not the complete velocity potential of (1. 10) which enters into the different conditions given above, bit. rather the velocity potential '1) (x, y, z) causing the perturbation

It will readily be seen, that an integral function which satis-fies the condition that the surface pressure is ps inside n and zero

Thus from an inspection of (1.14) and (1. 15)-it seems as if the

We notice that (1.27) and (1.29) give a non-oscillating local dis-turbance which owing to the exponential factor dies out quickly with
in-creasing distance from the pressure distribution. The two expressions (1.28) and (1.30) on the other hand represent the dominant part of the
part of the disturbance. Thus the condition expressed by (1. 16) is not satisfied and it becomes necessary to superpose a freely moving wave ;pattern in such a way as to cancel out approximately the free surface
disturbance at a large distance in front and double the waves at a long
distance to the rear. The term to be added to (1. 20) must furthermore satisfy (1.17) and also (1.15), by itself at every point on the free surface. A suitable term is accordingly (1;26) with limitation on the value of L. The velocity potential may therefore be written

The wave profile in front of the pressure distribution is now given by (1. 27) which, as explained above, dies quickly out with increasing dis-tance from the distribution. To the rear the profile is given by (1.29) which also dies quickly out with increasing distance, together with twice the value of (1. 30). We have accordingly for large distances from the

It thus appears that the wave pattern a long way away from the pressure distribution is built up of plane component waves advancingin all direction including within w /2 on either side of the axis of x and that
the amplitude factor depends upon the direction of these component waves. It is sometimes possible to express (1. 32) along the axis of x
in terms of tabulated functions, but this is not the ease for points away
from this axis, and the best one can do then is to find the asymptotic
2 a
expansion for large values of (x +y )2. We may, however, show that (1. 32) exhibit the usual features wellknown.for the waves behind a body =moving on the surface of a fluid. To do this we consider the particular
case of a concentrated pressure point of magnitude P situated at the

The first few terms in the asymptotic expansion of this expression could be found by applying the method of steepest descents. .The contour of integration in (1. 39) can be deformed into an equivalent set of paths which pass trough the zeros of w' ( ) in the complex plan, that is, through the saddle points, the curves chosen being such that the real part of w ( r) is concentrated in as short a stretch of the paths as possible. An
approx-imate value of the integral can then be determined from a consideration of the integrand in the neighbourhood of the saddle points and by making use of Watson's lemma. We have then, from the physical point of view, evaded the interference effects which would occur with any other type of contour. The saddle points are given by w' ( 7-) = .0 or '

-The two roots of tan Bare only real if cota 247 that is if
-19°28' 19028'. Thus the main part of the-wave pattern is
contained within the two straight lines, the so called lines of cusps,
radiating from the pressure point to the rear, each making the angle
19°28' with the line of motion. As 8 is- the direction angle of the plane component waves and as tan 0 has two roots, the smaller root
corresponds to the transverse waves and the larger to the divergent
waves at each point. For cot a = 2A--2 along the lines of cusps where the direction angle of the transverse waves coincides with that of the divergent waves we get tan 0 = 4272 or = .± 35°16'. Thus the
transverse waves are made up of component plane waves symmetri-cal about the axis of motion and whose direction angle in the plane bounded by the negative half of the axis of x and the positive half of the axis of y varies between 0°-and 35°16', whilst the direction angle of the divergent waves in the same plane varies between 35°16 and
900 The expression given by (1.40) represents really the envelopes of the straight crests (or troughs) of the plane component waves which
makes up the wave pattern, and along these envelopes the component
crests; or troughs as the case may be, combine together to give prom-inent features of the pattern. Owing to a difference in face, however
between that part of the envelopes formed by the transverse component waves and that part formed by the divergent component waves, the en-velopes are not quite the lines along which the wave pattern is an absO-lute maximum, in fact the absoabsO-lute maximum of the transverse waves
is situated slightly in front of the corresponding transverse part of the
envelopes.
The family of straight lines corresponding to the crests of the plane component waves of the travelling wave system may be represen-ted by

(1.41) x cos 8 - y sin 9 -N 1-7(o-cos = 0
where 6 is the direction angle, Kó. g/c , N

. and Ko thewave length. Finding the envelopes in the usual mariner by
differenti-ating in this case with respect to 0 and equdifferenti-ating to zero we obtain
x = (N Tr/2'K0) (5 cos 64-cos 30 ),y = (N 77/2 Ko) (sine + sin 30). By substituting it will be found that these expressions satisfy (1.40).
Differentiating with respect to 6 the expression of x and y we find that there are singular points or cusps on the envelopes for ta.n8= 4 2/2,
that is at the point where the transverse and divergent wave system meet. From the value of xl y" - y' x" when 0 varies between 0 and
97/2 we find that those parts of the envelopes which are due to the di-vergent waves are convex to the axis of x, and those parts which are due to the transverse Waves are convex-to the axis of y. At the
pres-sure point we have dy/dx= 0. The envelopes are indicated on fig. 2
3.nd they have a remarkable similarity to the general wave pattern formed at some distance behind any body moving on the surface of a fluid. We
due to the crests of the component waves represented by (1.41) by simple graphical methods. Representing the component crests with
straight lines for a number of values of 9 in the range from - 77 / 2 to IT /2, we would find the fan wave pattern represented by the envelopes emerging from such a clia.aram. At,points at some distance outside the region covered by these envelopes -the component crests. and troughs tend to cancel each other out on the average.
If we want to find the first few terms of the asymptotic expan-sion of (1.39) by making use of .the steepest descent we would have
to consider separately the three cases cot 2a - 8 0 as the paths
are not the same for all values of , thus a single asymptotic
ex-pansion is not valid for all values of a . In fact the boundaries of the
sector of half angle 1928'0 are lines along which the-Stokels
phenom-enon occurs, that is, the asymptotic expansions change their character
completely upon crossing these lines. The first term in the asymptotic expansion could also be found by making-use of the principle of station-ary phase. In this method we expand the power of the exponential func-tion in (1.39) about its stafunc-tionary value for large values of Kor and retain only two terms in the expansion, thus assuming that the terms
after the second are negligible. It will be found that the terms which we have to retain are not the same in the sector between ± 19028' and along these lines, this is due to the coincidence of the two roots in
(1.40) along these lines.

General Wave Resistance Theory.
It may seem as the most direct way by which to find an expression for the wave resistance would be to regard it as what it is in fact, namely, the combined backward resultant of the water -pressure acting on the
pres-sure distribution. Assuming that the upward drawn normal at a point
(x, y, o) on the pressure distribution makes the angle a , /3
, y with the
axis of x, y, z respectively, and that the angles a, are approximatelyequal to 77/2 whilst y is very small, we have that the wave resistance R experienced by the pressure distribution is given by
R =
ff p (x, y)sin
y clx dyAs, however, y is assumed to be a small angle and as the surface
ele-vation is given by t we have sin y . Substituting this expression
in the formula for the Wave resistance given above and making use of
13) we now have

which holds whether the pressure distribution is moving on the surface of deep or shallow water.
It will be found, , however, that (2. 10) does not always leads to the simplest method for purpose of calculations and a different method will
accordingly be _given now.
Let A and B be two infinitely large vertical planes fixed in space
at right angle to the direction of motion of the pressure distribution, A
in advance and B to the rear. Consider the rate of increase of the
ener-gy of the water in the region between the pressure distribution and these
two planes, and consider also the forces operating on the water at the boundaries of this portion of water. The water possesses kinetic energy
due to its motion and potential energy arising from alterations in the
sur-face elevation. As the pressure distribution moves forward with a velo-city of advance c the length of the wave train-is Increased ahead of the
plane B at a rate equal to c. Due to this, total energy, kinetic and
poten-tial, will be flowing into the region across B at a rate E(B). Similar let E(A) be the rate of kinetic and potential energy flowing out of the region across the plane A. Let the' water pressure at any point on B be p, and let u be the component of fluid veloditi inwards at right angle to this plane. The water to the left of B is doing work on the Water to the right at a rate pu per unit area at each point on the plane. Summing up for the whole plane we call W(B) the rate at which work is being done across this plane
on the water in question. This term is of course connected with the well known theory that the energy in a plane wave is transmitted at a speed equal to the group velocity. Similarly we let - W(A) be the rate of work across the plane A on the fluid between A and B.. Hence, equating the
to-tal rate of work upon this portion of water to the rate of increase of its
total energy we get
Rc.+ W(B) - W(A) = E(B) - E(A)
where R is, as mentioned before, -the- wave resistance experienced by the
pressure distribution at the speed of advance c.
If we now take the plane A further and further in advance of the
pres-sure distribution the quantities E(A) and W(A) approximates to
zero since
the distribution is advancing into still water. If we also take B further and
further to the rear, the disturbance due to the pressure distribution approx-imates to a free wave pattern. Thus we have in the limit
(2.11) R = 1 (E(B) - W(8) ]
where E(B) and W(B) are calculated from the free wave pattern to which the disturbance approximates at a very long distance to the rear, thus
showing that the wave resistance depends on the supply of energy to the periodic part of the disturbance only and not on the local part of disturbance.
An other way to look upon this problem will apparently be to assume
that the rear of the wave system moves forward with a less velocity than the front. The whole procession Will then be. lengthened at
a certain rate
and the energy to this process is supplied by the .pressuredistribution.-We now proceed to calculate the quantities in (2. 11) in terms of the velocity potential ct) due to the perturbation velocity. We draw a third plane B1 parallel B and a-distance c behind it. The rate of
in-crease in kinetic energy between A and B will be due to the transfere of the kinetic energy between the two planes B and
B1 into the region
in question. The kinetic energy between the two planes B and B1 is given by
(2.12) - yb ds =
(C70)(
) dVwhere On represents differentiation along a normal, drawn into the wa-ter between B and B1 and where V = ?--x +1-3-T° + in the
usual notations. The first integral is taken over the boundaries and
the second throughout the fluid volume between the two planes B and
B1
We consider shallow water of uniform depth d, because the par-ticular case of a deep water may simply be obtained by taking d, infi-nitely large. Hence integrating over the boundaries, which consist of
the two planes B, B/, the free surface and the bed given by x = xo

The disturbance produced by the pressure distribution will be of a
complicated character but the further we go to the rear the more it
ap-proximates to a freely moving Wave pattern, consisting of the periodic part, and following on with the same speed as the distribution.
The simplest form,of free waves on the surface consists of simple
harmonic waves extending over the whole surface. Taking a stationary origin with a wave propagation along the axis of xl, the surface elevation
for simple sine pattern of amplitude a may be represented by (
a sin K(xi

where K = K tanh kd, and where the velocity potential is givenby

are in fact quite general. They may accordingly be used for any type of body moving in a fluid at constant speed of advance and for which a velocity potential may be found.

The Wave Resistance in the Case of a Deep Water.
We now make use of (2. 25) and (2. 27) which applies for deep
water in order to find an expression for the wave resistance of the
pres-sure distribution. It will be noticed that (1. 32), which is an expression of the periodic part and therefore also of the wave profile at a long dis-tance to the rear of the disturbance, may be written in the form of (2. 25) if we put

We may compare (3.10) and (3.11) with the wave resistance of a distribution of doublets on a surface within the liquid.

We may accordingly say that the wave resistance in the two cases would be the same with the connection between the doublet density and the pressure distribution given by 4 Trp g M= cps.-
-Let us now compare in similar manner (3.16) and (3.17) with a
distribution of sources ,over a plane whose depth below the free surface we neglect at every point. The wave resistance of such a distribution may be shown to be given by

The generalised expressions such as (3. 10) and (3. 11) may be put in a different form when pressure distributions 'symmetrical about the origin

Thus if we put B gp 1)3 in (3. 22) we get the interesting result that the wave resistance of a pressure distribution given by (3. 20) and moving
on the surface of deep water is the same as the wave resistance of a little
sphere of radius b moving at a depth f below the 'surface of the water.
It.
should be noted that B is not a function of the speed of advance in this com-parison as is the case of the moment of the doublet.Before considering a second particular case we ricite that the velocity potential of a horizontal doublet moving alopf the axis of x in an infinite stream is given by ch = (x2 + y2 + z2 ) -31 where M is the moment of
the doublet.
It may be shown that the velocity potential of a prolate spheroid
moving at a speed c along its major axis in an infinite stream is given
by

axis at the same constant speed of advance.
By making e zero we now verify that (3. 26) reduces to (3. 21)
the expression of the wave resistance of a sphere. For the Bessel
function of the first kind we substitute
113/2 ( a ) =ETT ( siana - cos CL)
in (3. 26) and express sin a. /a. and cos a. in infinite series. Expanding
also the different terms in the denominator of B in infinite series we
find that e3 in the factor in front of the integral expression cancel out and that (3. 26) reduces to (3. 21).
If we, on the other hand write down the expression for the
dis-turbance produced by these two pressure distributions given by (3. 20) and (3. 25) respectively it will be found. however, that they do nof a-gree with the disturbance produced on the surface by the bodies which
gives raise to the same wave resistance. This is due to the
non-oscil-lation local disturbance which are different whilst the periodic part of
the disturbance is the same for the pressure distribution and the cor-responding submerged body. As the wave resistance, however, depends
upon the supply of energy needed to maintain the periodic part of the disturbance, and not upon the local disturbance which as we have seen, dies quickly out with increasing distance from the body or pressure
dis-tribution, it was to be expected that a. pressure distribution and a
sub-merged body which produces the same periodic part of the disturbanCe also would have the same wave resistance. This result appears to have
an important bearing on the relation between the wave profile along a
ship and the corresponding wave resistance, because it.indicates that
it will be very difficult indeed to determine accurately what influence a reasonably small variation of the wave profile, measured along the ship, will have on the wave resistance when deep water is considered."- It is
of course released that the bodies considered above do not break the surface of the fluid as in the case of a ship, but there does not seem-any'
reasons why this should invalide the 'conclusion drawn. It has been pointed out in the course of the discussion of papers dealing with wave
resistance that more emphasize should be laid on the wave profile along the ship and that it should be carefully analysed.- It appears, however,
from what has been pointed out in the foregoing, that the value of such an analysis may be largely exaggerated leading probably only to very general conclusion. To this must be added the practical aspect of the
measurements required for such an analysis, it being not possible to
measure any wave profile with even nearly the accuracy by which the resistance may be measured'.
-The wave resistance expression given by-(3. 10) may also be .ob-tained from (2. 10). From (1. 31) or from (1. 23) to (1.25) we get

These 'expressions have now to be substituted in (Z.10). The two functions given by.(3. 27)-and (3. 2,8) lead then to-an integral expression which may be
written formally when noting that the first require x-h >0 and the second
x-h < 0
where:Sand T are the limits of the pressure distribution in the x-direction.
Consider the first term 'only. Changing the Order of integration and then interchanging x and h we find that this term may be written

Thus the two terms in the above integral expression cancel each other out, and accordingly (3.27) and (3. 28) do not contribute anything to the wave
resistance. As these two expressions correspond to the local disturbance the result obtained is in complete agreement with the development leading to (2.-10 and (2. 27). ,

The pressure ps acting on the surface within. the region may be ex-pressed by the integral function (1.18). The condition to be satisfied at the bed, and also the conditions given by (1.14) and (1.15) suggest that the velocity potential due to the perturbation velocities will take the form of

It does not appear practical in this case to make use of the substitution
employed when considering (1. 21). The integrals in K in (4. 11) are there-fore trandformed as they now stand by contour integration. Assuming that the pressure distribution is symmetrical about- the axis of x it will only
be necessary to consider that part of the icy-pla.ne for whichy .0, thus we have two conditions to take account of, namely, L >

When Lcos 6 Fsin 0 < o we use a contour which is the image in the

Performing the contour integration we find that the Contribution. from the imaginary axis and from the small half Circles about all the poles on this axis gives a non-oscillating function which is exponentiallyvan-

really represents the local disturbance of the wave profile,' Whilst the con-tribution from the half circle about the pole on the real axis gives the dominant part, Which is really the periodic part of the wave profile.
Before the results of the contour integration may be substituted in
(4.11), however , we note that a factor such as for -exaMple Lcose

These expressions reduce to (1. 28) and (1.30) respectively when d, is made infinitely large.
From (4. 15) we see that the condition expressed by (1.16) is not
satisfied, and it becomes necessary to superpose a freely moving wave pattern in such a way as to cancel out approximately the free surface disturbance at a long distance in front of the pressure distribution, and
double the waves at a long distance to the
rear.

This expression reduces "to (-3. 21) when d, is made infinitely large. The integral in (4. 22) does not appear to come out in tabulated functions and its value for different c 2/gclo and di/f ratios has
ac-cordingly to be found by direct,Au.adrature. Determining the wave
resistance R it will be found, in agreement with experimental re-sults, that the curve of R to a base of speed increases to begin with at a higher rate when the depthof the water decreases. A maximum in the different wave resistance curves occurs at speeds slightly
35
-the least depth giving -the highest maximum value. When -the depth of
the water i s fairly large there is a distinct seccind,maximum
corre-sponding to the deep water maximum. This latter hump always occurs at a lower speed than the maximum corresponding approximately to c= 1 gd, . As, however, the depth becomes lest the maximum at
ap-proximately c = 'E F1, becomes of increasing importance and the second hump can now only be detected by a slight flattening of the
re-sistance curve. It will also be found that the wave resistance decreases again after the velocity c = 4g-Cri has been passed, the rate of decrease being faster for the shallow water. This in turn leads to a smaller
re-sistance for the shallowest water and is partly connected with the lower limit of the integral in (4. 22) which is given by
-1
= cos rica77 for c > 4 gd,.
As the depth dide-creases 00 inde-creases at these high speeds, its maximum value being
7T /2, thus reducing the range of the integral. For the two dimensional
case with Only transverse waves we will.accordingly get zero wave
re-sistance at speeds higher than rg7it due to the disappearance of these
waves.
From (4.18) we see that the wave pattern a long way away from the pressure distribution may be assumed to be built up of plane com-ponent waves as in the deep water case thus justifying the use of (2. 24)
in order to find an expression of the wave resistance. In order to show that (4.18) exhibit the usual features of the waves behind a body moving on the surface of fluid of finite depth we consider the particular case of
a pressure point of magnitude P situated, at the origin in a tniiform
-stream. Expression (4. 18) reduces now to

whatever value K may take we must have o .4 cos 2a4 8/9or ± 19° 28' a 17/2. The smaller value oflal is of course the limiting

corresponding to C 2= gd, . Thus at the very lowest speeds the
trans-verse Wave systems are made up of plane component waves whose direction angle in the plane bounded by the negative half of the axis
of X and the positive half of the axis of y varies between 00 and
35°16' . As, however. the speed increases, this latter limit of 0
decreases continually until the direction angle 0 becomes zero when
c 2= gd we shall, however,
return to this point later.The expression given by (4:24) represents really the envelopes of the straight crests (or troughs) of the plane component waves which makes up the wave pattern. The family of straight lines, corresponding
to the crests of the plane component waves of the travelling wave system
may in this case be represented by

to the expressions for x, y given in section 1 for deep Water. From (4. 27) and (4. 28) we find that

As, however, the greatest possible value m(3-n) can have is 2 we must
have q > 1 and only in this case is there a double wave system consisting
of transverse and divergent waves with a line of cusps. .
From (4.32) we note that when q decreases to unity, that is c increaseS
to gd, , both in and n approach their. limiting value of unity along -the line of cusps. As, the cusp angle is given by (4. 25).-we see that this angle widens
out and reaches its limiting of n/2 when c= IF thus the waves at this critical speed are situated on the, whole of the half.plane to the rear of the
