Abstract
The general formula for the surface-wave spectrum of an incompressible viscoelastic liquid of arbitrary depth is derived and discussed for s everal limiting cases. For liquids of high viscosity and long stress r elaxation time, the formula includes the contribution of the elastic r esponse at high frequencies, which is not obtained in the lubrication approximation for the shallow limit.
