Surface wavepackets subject to an abrupt depth change. Part II: experimental analysis

Abstract:

Surface gravity wavepackets in intermediate water depth experiencing an abrupt depth decrease are investigated experimentally. The experiments provide validation for the second-order (in steepness) theory for narrow-banded surface gravity wavepackets experiencing a sudden depth transition derived in a companion paper (Li et al., J. Fluid Mech., 2021, 915, A71). We observe the generation of free second-order sub- and superharmonic wavepackets due to the sudden depth transition, in addition to ...
