| Abstract: | A study is made of the nonlinear problem of the flow without separation of a perfect weightless liquid past a plate near the free surface. This problem was first posed by Gurevich [1]. At present, there are only a general solution to the problem [2–4] and some numerical calculations [5], which have been made under definite restrictions and are inadequate for detailed information about the interaction between the free surface and the plate. In the present paper, a complete investigation of the problem is given. Convenient computational formulas are obtained together with asymptotic expansions of them, and detailed calculations are made for all depths of the plate.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 158–162, January–February, 1980. |
