Extract

1. The reflexion of a simple harmonic train of surface waves by a rigid plane barrier inclined at an angle α to the undisturbed free surface of the water is considered in the particular case in which 2sα = π, where s is an integer. The solution if s = 2 has been given by Gourret(1), while the solution if s = 1 is well known; the solution for any integral value of s is given here.
