51 Periodic Irrotational Waves of Finite Height. 
The quantities By,2,4:, and, in fact, all the coefficients B;,2n+1, can be 
studied algebraically from the relations (14). The algebraic solution of 
equations (15), together with a formal study of convergence, would be of 
great interest ; meantime the numerical illustrations given in the foregoing 
discussion may serve to show the possibility of a general scheme which 
includes waves of any permissible height.
