Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study presents mathematical model of the internal waves and examines wave propagation in a two-layer fluid flow. Elements of the functional-analytical approach are used to develop the model. A flat unsteady motion of a two-layer liquid under a cover over a flat bottom is considered. The fluid is assumed to be ideal and incompressible. Internal waves are caused by external pressure application to the interface between the layers, oscillation of the flat bottom and disturbances in the flow. The power of the wave source is characterized by dimensionless parameter ε. The problem is formulated, and its solution is based on asymptotic analysis for 0<ε<1.
