In all there are thus eight constants to be found, and we have in(10.18.75) and (10.13.76) eight relations to determine them. Oncethese constants have been determined, the reflection and transmissioncoefficients are known, and the deflection of the beam can be foundfrom (10.13.69). The maximum bending stresses in the beam can then= Elrf xxbe calculated from the usual formula: s = Me//, withand c the distance from the neutral axis to the extreme outer fibres ofthe beam.WethatMIn principle, therefore, the solution of the problem is straightforward.
However, the carrying out of the details in the case of the beamof finite length is very tedious, involving as it does a system of eightlinear equations for eight unknowns with complex coefficients. Inaddition, one must determine the roots of a sixth degree algebraicequation in order to find the general solution of (10.13.74). TheseWATER WAVES442roots are in general complex numbers and they involve the essentialparameters of the mechanical system. Thus it is clear that a discussion of the behavior of the system in general terms with respect toarbitrary values of the parameters of the system is not feasible, andone must turn rather to concrete cases in which most of the parametershave been given specific numerical values.
The results of some calculations of this kind, for a case proposed as a practical possibility, will begiven a little later.The case of a semi-infinite beam i.e. a beam extending from x =oois simpler to deal with in that the conditions in theto x =second line of (10.13.76) fall away, and the conditions (10.13.75) atxoo can be replaced by the requirement that q> be bounded atxoo. The number of constants to be fixed then reduces to fourinstead of eight, but the determination of the deflection of the beamstill remains a formidable problem; we shall consider this case as wellas the case of abeamof finite length.Webegin the program indicated with a discussion of the generalsolution of the differential equation (10.13.74). Since it is a lineardifferential equation with constant coefficients we proceed in thestandard fashion by settingfor K the equationx(10'.13.77)q>=*,inserting in (10.13.74), to find+ ax + b2--=witha cubic equation in x 2 = /?, which happens to be in the standardform to which the Cardan formula for the roots of a cubic appliesdirectly.

The wave length and frequency arethus connected by a rather complicated relation, and, unlike the caseof waves in shallow water with no immersed bodies or constraints onthe free surface, the wave length is not independent of the frequencyand the wave phenomena are subject to dispersion.In the case of a beam extending from the origin towater surfaceisfree forx>0,oo while thethe boundedness conditions for==<patsince x 4 and x 6 have negativeaeoo requires that we take a4**would yield exponentiallyande**real parts and consequentlyunbounded contributionsto<patx=oo.We knowthatjand x 2WATER WAVES444are pure imaginary with opposite signs, with x 2 say, negative imaginary.

Thereason for considering such a structure for a breakwater as ameans of creating relatively calm water between it and the shoreis the following: a structure which floats on the surface without sinking far into the water need not be subjected to large horizontal forcesand hence would not necessarily require a massive anchorage.
