Investigation on the Reflection Coefficient for Seawalls Protected by a Rubble Mound Structure
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Sea wave reflection from coastal protection structures is one of the main issues in the coastal design process. Several empirical formulas have been proposed so far to predict reflection coefficient from rubble mound breakwaters and smooth slopes.

Reflection of Strong Blast Waves [PDF]
The Physics of Fluids, 1964 The reflection of strong point-source blast waves is studied using the continuum concept of flow of ideal gases. Methods of obtaining the upper and lower bounds as well as a Taylor series expansion of the position of the reflected shock is considered. The procedure of studying the flow variables near the reflected shock is also described.

Reflected waves and quantum gravity
Physical Review D, 2023 In the context of canonical quantum gravity, we consider the effects of a non-standard expression for the gravitational wave function on the evolution of inflationary perturbations. Such an expression and its effects may be generated by a sudden variation in the (nearly constant) inflaton potential.

Physical Experimental Study on the Wave Reflection and Run-Up of a New Ecological Hollow Cube
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringImplementing quadrangular hollow blocks on breakwaters is a common method for wave mitigation and ocean disaster prevention. In order to improve the wave-damping performance of conventional quadrangular hollow blocks, a new quadrangular hollow block is ...

On the Reflection of a Spherical Sound Wave from a Finite Size Surface
Applied SciencesRoom acoustics computer models based on geometrical acoustics usually handle the sound reflections by the assumption of plane waves. However, if the sound source is a point source, which is usually the case, the spherical wave reflection would be more ...

Wave transmission and reflection of waves “The myth is in their use”
Artery Research, 2012 Arterial input impedance, as complete description of the arterial system, is explained by waves and wave reflection. Without wave reflections input impedance would equal aortic characteristic impedance and pressure and flow wave shapes would be similar.

OBLIQUE SHOCK WAVE REFLECTION FROM THE WALL [PDF]
Научно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптики, 2015 Regular and Mach (irregular) reflection of an oblique shock wave from the wall is considered. Criteria for the transition from regular to irregular reflection are described: von Neumann criterion and the criterion for fixed Mach configuration. Specific
