摘要:
Photographs from high‐speed movies of the profiles of a mechanically generated, gentle spilling breaking water wave are presented. It is found that as the wave steepens a bulge forms on the forward face of the wave near the crest and capillary waves form on the water surface ahead of the ‘toe’ of the bulge (see Fig. 1). The toe of the bulge then moves rapidly down the forward face of the wave and a train of large‐amplitude waves with short wavelength grows rapidly on the surface of the bulge. These waves quickly break down into a random pattern indicating that the flow has become turbulent.
