Abstract

The uniqueness condition that was utilized by the author (Concus 1962) is considered. The condition, which excludes certain fluid depths, is shown to be physically unacceptable because it is essentially impossible to satisfy in practice. The resulting in validation of the perturbation method is discussed, and a revision is presented, which invokes the presence of viscosity and allows retention of the previously obtained solutions. The revision may also be applied to the work of other authors who utilized the same method to solve other standing-wave problems.
