Incident potential

The incident potential is a wave of amplitude [math]\displaystyle{ A }[/math] in displacement travelling in the positive [math]\displaystyle{ x }[/math]-direction. The incident potential can therefore be written as

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi^{\mathrm{I}} =e^{-k_{0}x}\phi_{0}\left( z\right) }[/math]
