dc.description.abstractWhen waves enter a region covered with a surfactant, the spatial variation of the surface tension causes reflection and refraction of the waves. The simplified inviscid‐flow problem of two adjacent half‐spaces with different surface tension coefficients is solved analytically for plane waves at oblique incidence. The linearized wave potential is described by a complex contour integral representation for which uniqueness is obtained from the requirement of energy conservation. The reflection is found to be small for some typical cases.en_US
