Approximation of wave forces on cylinder arrays
P. McIver,D. V. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an approximate method for the estimation of wave forces on groups of fixed vertical cylinders is presented based upon a large spacing approximation and involves replacing scattered diverging waves by plane waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface wave interactions with systems of oscillating bodies and pressure distributions
Johannes Falnes,P. McIver +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the radiation coupling between all oscillators is represented by a partitioned matrix composed of the radiation admittance matrix for the pressure distributions, the radiation impedance matrix for oscillating bodies, and a radiation coupling matrix between the bodies and the pressure distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Added mass and damping of a sphere section in heave
D. V. Evans,P. McIver +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the wave-induced forces on the outer rigid surface and the outer spherical surface due to independent oscillations of either are determined semi-analytically using a simple extension of the method of Havelock, recently simplified and generalised by Hulme, 3 for the complete half-immersed sphere.
Book ChapterDOI
Wave Interaction with Oscillating Bodies and Water Columns
Johannes Falnes,P. McIver +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a linear hydrodynamical theory for a system of oscillating bodies and oscillating water columns (OWCs) is described and illustrated by considering one OWC and one body oscillating in a single mode only.
