| Zusammenfassung: | The propagation of water surface waves over one-dimensional periodic and random bottoms is investigated by the transfer matrix method. For the periodic bottoms, the band structure is calculated, and the results are compared to the transmission results. When the bottoms are randomized, the Anderson localization phenomenon is observed. The theory has been applied to an existing experiment [J. Fluid Mech. 186, 539 (1988)]]. In general, the results are compared favorably with the experimental observation. |
