Theoretical Hydrodynamics on
Advancing and Oscillating Bodies at Free Surface


A new slender-ship theory is being developed, which has no limitations on the order of forward speed and oscillation frequency. The theory features in the combination of the particular solution plus a homogeneous solution. The particular solution is the same as that of "high-speed slender-body theory" or "2.5 dimensional theory", which represents only the effects of ship-generated longitudinal waves. Missing effects steming from transverse waves are taken into account through the homogeneous component.
