Abstract: An approximate method is presented to investigate the hydrodynamic interactions between a pair of free‐standing, bottom‐mounted, flexible circular cylinders subjected to high‐frequency, horizontal ground motion. The cylinders ...

Abstract: Two approximate methods are presented for the calculation of the wave induced forces and moments on a vertical, surface‐piercing cylinder of elliptic cross section. Both methods provide a substantial reduction in computational ...

Abstract: The integral equation method is utilized to calculate the wave‐induced loading on a surface‐piercing cylinder of circular cross‐section inclined at an arbitrary angle to the sea bed. Numerical values of the various force ...
