"Unlocking the Potential: A Strategy for Efficient Resonant Absorption of Guided Water Waves"
Researchers have introduced a new strategy for efficiently absorbing water waves, which could help protect coasts and structures from wave damage. The strategy is based on the resonant effect known as Autler-Townes splitting, which has been observed in various physical systems. The researchers demonstrated the effectiveness of their strategy through theoretical analysis, numerical simulations, and experiments. If further testing confirms its effectiveness, this strategy could be employed in coastal regions to control the impact of waves on shores and man-made structures.
