摘要

Internal waves in a stratified liquid propagate to fit the dispersion relation, depending only on the frequency and the angle to the gravity. The phenomenon of self-focussing of such waves is known as wave attractor. To study this phenomenon numerically or in a laboratory, it is common to use a wave-maker providing the forcing through one of the boundaries. In this work, we study the influence of the wave-maker forcing on the wave attractor formation and its characteristics.
