Interaction of surface and internal solitary waves with slopes

Applied hydromechanics, Vol. 13 (85) ¹ 2, (2011) p.51-63
Features of the processes of interaction of surface and internal solitary waves with slope are considered. The results of the measurements of amplitude and energy coefficients of reflection are represented. It is shown that these coefficients rapidly grow with the increase of angle for gentle slopes. The growth rate considerably decreases for sufficiently steep slopes. Notes, the mentioned features of behavior of coefficient reflection are connected with different mechanisms that control the processes of reflection.
