The study explores the concept of an "invisibility carpet" for linear water waves using both numerical simulations and experimental methods in a wavetank setup.
The research first examines a bounded problem in the wavetank configuration before simplifying it by testing the invisibility effect on a vertical dihedral using a structure of 18 trapezoidal poles.
The findings indicate that the designed structure successfully renders the dihedral invisible by manipulating the reflected wave patterns in the water.
