To calculate the curves of constant phase it is convenientto express the basic condition (8.2.14) of stationary phase in otherally theforms through introduction of the following quantitydimension of length:a(8.2.15)=2c 2w=(8.2.14)which has thec 2t 2.2rgFroma,one then findsct(8.2.16)(8.2.17)= a cos 0,r = acosand20,as equivalent expressions of the stationary phase condition.It would be possible to calculate the curves of constant phase forany given course of theship.Wecarry this out for the case of acir-cular course (this case has been treated by L.

It is convenient to introduce the dimensionless parameter K throughfixed,K(8.2.22)=One then finds that the angle aa(8.2.23)=a/R.(cf.(8.2.19))isgiven byHCOS0,through use of (8.2.16). In terms of these quantities the relations(8.2.21) can be put in the following dimensionless form:x/R=sin (x cos 6)z/R=1-cos 2 6 cos (6+ K cos 0)- cos 2+(8.2.24)cos (x cos 0)2sin (0cos 0).These equations furnish the curves of stationary phase in terms ofas parameter. Each fixed value of x furnishes one such curve, sincefixing K (for a fixed turning radius R) is equivalent to fixing the phaseIn Figure 8.2.8 a few curves of constant phase, as well as the(p.Fig.

These curves shouldbe compared with the photographs of actual cases given in Figures8.2.4 and 8.2.5. One sees that the wave pattern is given correctly bythe theory, at least qualitatively. The agreement between theory andobservation is particularly striking in view of the manner in whichthe action of a ship has been idealized as a moving pressure point. Inparticular there are two distinct sets of waves apparent, in conformitywith the fact that we expect each point in the disturbed region toWAVE PATTERN CREATED BY A MOVINGSHIP237correspond to two influence points: one set which seems to emanatefrom the ship's bow, and another set which is arranged roughly atright angles to the ship's course.
These two systems of waves are calledthe diverging and the transverse systems, respectively.From (8.2.24) we can obtain the more important case of the ship-> oo while x ->waves for a straight course by lettingin such aRwaythatRxThe-> a (cf.

We shall see shortly that a closer examinationof our approximate solution shows the two systems of waves to have aphase difference there. Itgeneral observationisworth while to verifymade earlier,i.e.in the present case athat the curves of constant phaseWATER WAVES238are orthogonal to the lines drawn back to the corresponding influencepoints. One finds from (8.2.25):_=dd_-(3sin2-2I)sin0(8.2.26)=-(3sin2-2ddI)cos0.=I/tan 0, which (cf.
Figure 8.2.10) means that thecurves of constant phase are indeed orthogonal to the lines drawn toHence dz/dxz>Fig. 8.2.10.

The valuesare singular points of the curves; they correspond to points P at theboundary of the influence region where the influence points Q l andcoincide. Evidently there are cusps at these points.

Inaddition,we observethat to any point on the ship's course there corresponds (for0)only one influence point (of type Q 2 ) and it does not coincide with thepoint P.
(One sees, in fact, that the diverging wave does not occur onthe ship's course.) This is a fact that is needed to justify the application of theasmethod of stationary phasewe have remarkedto points on the ship's course,earlier in this section (cf. also the precedingsection).In order to complete our discussion we must consider the amplitudeof the surface waves, as given by our approximation, as well as theshape of the curves of constant phase.

The quantity a is defined by (8.2.15), andthe relation (8.2.17), in addition to those immediately above, hasbeen used.
The points on the boundary of the region of disturbancecould be determined analytically, as follows: the set of all influence=the one-parameter family of circles given by dy/dt%(x,z,t)0, and the region of disturbance is bounded by the envelope ofinthese circles, i.e. by the points at which d 2(p/dt 2d%/dtpointsis==addition tojf=0.=In the case of a straight course traversed at con-=oo thatstant speed, for example, we .see from (8.2.32) for R3 sin 2a result found above,then has the value 0* given by 1where the value0* also was seen to characterize cusps on the loci==of constant phase. From the form of the relation (8.2.32) one can conclude that the only courses for which the pattern of waves behind theship follows it without change (i.e.
follows it like a rigid body) arethose for whichconst.; and thus only the straight and the circular courses have this property.R=we have to consider the amplitude j\(x, z) of the waves givenourbyapproximate solution.
