Hydrodynamic coefficients for groups of interacting vertical axisymmetric bodies

TL;DR: In this paper, the linearized hydrodynamic forces acting on multiple vertical axisymmetric bodies forced to oscillate either independently or as a unit in water of finite depth were investigated.

Behaviour of vertical bodies of revolution in waves

TL;DR: In this article, a macroelement method is proposed for the complete linear hydromechanic analysis of arbitrarily shaped bodies of revolution with vertical axis can be carried out, based on discretization of the flow field around the structure by means of ring-shaped macroelements, the velocity potential in each element being approximated with Fourier series.

Wave loads on a stationary floating bottomless cylindrical body with finite wall thickness

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a method for solving the linearised diffraction problem of the interaction between regular sinusoidal, small amplitude incident waves and a bottomless cylindrical floating body with a vertical symmetry axis and finite wall thickness, through the idealisation of the flow field around the structure using ring elements.

Evaluation of added mass and damping coefficient of an oscillating circular cylinder

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical solution to the velocity potential that governs the linear radiation problem is described, and a comparison with the available experimental data is made to determine the close form solutions for the added mass and damping coefficient of a large surfacepiercing and bottom-mounted vertical circular cylinder under-going horizontal oscillations in the surge (or sway) motion.

Hydrodynamic coefficients for a thick-walled bottomless cylindrical body floating in water of finite depth

TL;DR: 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.

Added mass and damping of a vertical cylinder in finite-depth waters

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive set of theoretical added masses and wave damping data for a floating circular cylinder in finite-depth water is presented, and the hydrodynamic problem is solved by matching eigen functions of the interior and exterior problems.

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.

Hydrodynamic coefficients for vertical circular cylinders at finite depth

TL;DR: In this paper, a matching technique is used to satisfy the continuity of pressure and normal velocities for vertical circular cylinders at finite water depth, and a summary of equations for computer application is presented.
