TLDR
In this paper, the linearized hydrodynamic forces acting on a bottomless cylindrical body having vertical symmetry axis and oscillating in water of finite depth were dealt with, where the flow field around the structure was subdivided into ring-shaped fluid regions, in each of which an axisymmetric eigenfunction expansion for the velocity potential was made.

Wave forces on a circular dock

TL;DR: In this article, the scattering of surface gravity waves by a circular dock is considered in order to determine the horizontal and vertical forces and torque on the dock, and the solution is shown to have phase independent of depth and so may be obtained from an infinite set of real equations.

First- and second order forces on a cylinder submerged under a free surface

TL;DR: In this article, the linearized potential problem of water waves passing over a submerged circular cylinder was solved and it was shown that the transmitted waves have the same amplitude as the incident waves, but they suffer a phase shift in passing the cylinder.
