Abstract
Ray theory is extended to consider the case of an accelerating disturbance which is producing waves in a rotating stratified fluid. Starting from the equations of motion, dispersion relations are derived for surface gravity waves, capillary waves, Rossby waves and internal-inertial waves. The wave system is studied in each case for the problem of a body starting impulsively from rest and for a body starting from rest and moving with constant acceleration.
