Revisiting the complete wave transmission and reflection due to an array of 2-D surface-piercing truncated vertical plates fixed in regular incident waves (part 2)

As the second paper under the same title of the first one, we revisit a rather classic problem, complete wave transmission and reflection due to an array of 2-D bodies. In this second paper, wave interaction mechanism resulting in complete transmission is further examined. The analysis is extended to more than 2 bodies and the possibility of complete wave transmission through an array composed of more than two bodies is theoretically examined. Effect of viscous energy dissipation on wave transmission is also discussed through the comparison between non-viscous theoretical results and experimental results.
