The effects of surfactants on plunging breakers

The effects of surfactants on a mechanically generated plunging breaker are studied experimentally in a laboratory wave tank. Waves are generated using a dispersively focused wave packet with a characteristic wavelength of λ0 = 1.18 m. Experiments are performed with two sets of surfactant solutions....
