Some Contributions to the Wedge-Water Entry Problem
Publication: Journal of the Engineering Mechanics Division
Volume 83, Issue 2
Abstract
Study is based upon new formulation of basic equations of hydrodynamics especially applicable to wedge water entry problem; development is given first for compressible case; this is then specialized to incompressible (water) case and study of resulting equations leads to various relations and properties governing general straight sided wedge water entry phenomenon.
