Abstract

Numerical evidence of the existence of edge waves travelling along a periodic coastline consisting of a straight and vertical cliff face from which protrudes an infinite number of identical rectangular barriers, each extending throughout the water depth, is given based on a Galerkin approximation to an integral representation of the problem derived using the linear theory of water waves.
