Abstract

This warier summarises some recent work on lone gravity waves on still water m channels of arbitrary constant cross-section. Theoretical results have been obtained for both straight and curved channels. Some experimental work has been performed m straight trapezoidal channels and shows reasonable agreement with theory. For straight channels some details of the second approximation are given, and the cases where the approximation breaks down are indicated. For curved channels it is found that the effect of channel curvature is more pronounced when the cross-sectional shane of the channel is not symmetric with resnect to its centre-line.
