Abstract

Here we present novel experimental evidence that the presence of polymer in water dramatically affects the transition to breaking standing gravity surface waves excited under Faraday resonance. Our measurements showed that by adding of a small amount of polymers to the distilled water the transition into wave breaking state was delayed, and the elongational viscosity of the polymer solution accounts for this behavior.
