On critical propagation speeds of gravity waves in homogeneous and two-layer fluids

Some results are discussed of experimental study of gravity waves generated by a translatory movement of the vertical plate in homogeneous and two-layer fluids. Particular emphasis has been placed on the fact that, at the specified propagation speed, the waves lose their stability and break down. The hypothesis is supported by the fact the magnitude of this speed coincides with the limiting propagation speed of the solitary wave for waves of the more general form as well. Quantitative data are given which might be useful for testing the results of numerical computations.
