摘要:This paper is concerned with the generation of surface waves by an axially symmetric initial disturbance applied at an inertial surface in an ocean of finite depth. This initial disturbance can be either in the form of an impulse or an elevation or depression. The depression of the inertial surface is obtained as an infinite integral in each case. The method of stationary phase is applied to evaluate the integral for large values of time and distance.
