To clarify the resonance of fully-nonlinear internal solitary waves which is one of the reasons for the occurrence of large amplitude internal waves, fully-nonlinear and strongly-dispersive internal wave equation model was applied, which attempted to investigate interaction of internal solitary waves in a two-dimensional plane. The 3rd order theoretical solutions for internal waves in a two-layer system was used for the initial conditions and progress of internal solitary wave was confirmed. Seven different incident wave angles were given, in which 'stem' was confirmed to appear when incident wave angle is less than critical angle. As a result, it is found that the amplified internal wave amplitude becomes about three times as much as the original amplitude.
