Abstract

Abstract This article relates with the interaction of water waves obliquely incident on a semi-infinite submerged elastic plate of insignificant thickness. The solution is obtained using method of mode matching. Reflection coefficients under the variation of various physical parameters: submergence depth, angle of incidence, stiffness of elastic plate and Poisson’s ratio, for two different edge conditions (i) pinned edge condition and (ii) sliding edge condition are discussed. Convergence and validation of results is also given. Behaviour of the velocity potentials around semi-infinite submerged elastic plate for different physical parameters are also analyzed. The consequences are explained through numerical and graphical results. More over energy balance relation is also discussed.
