solutions based on multipole methods. Today, usually two-dimensional panel<br />

methods are preferred due to their (slightly) higher accuracy for realistic ship<br />

geometries. These two-dimensional panel methods can be based on GFM or<br />

RSM, see previous chapter.<br />

The flow and thus the pressure distribution depends on<br />

ž for the radiation problem:<br />

hull shape, frequency ωe, and direction of the motion (vertical, horizontal,<br />

rotational)<br />

ž for the diffraction problem:<br />

hull shape, wave frequency ω, and encounter angle<br />

For the radiation problem, we compute the pressure distributions for unit amplitude<br />

motions in one degree of freedom and set all other motions to zero and<br />

omit the incident wave. For the diffraction problem, we set all motions to<br />

zero and consider only the incident wave and its diffraction. We denote the<br />

resulting pressures by:<br />

ˆp2 for horizontal unit motion of the cylinder<br />

ˆp3 for vertical unit motion of the cylinder<br />

ˆp4 for rotational unit motion of the cylinder around the x axis<br />

ˆp0 for the fixed cylinder in waves (only the pressure in the undisturbed wave)<br />

ˆp7 for the fixed cylinder in waves (only the disturbance of the pressure due to<br />

the body)<br />

Let the actual motions of the cylinder in a wave of amplitude Ohx be described<br />

by the complex amplitudes Ou2,0x, Ou3,0x, Ou4,0x. Then the complex amplitude of<br />

the harmonic pressure is:<br />

Opi DOp2 Ou2,0x COp3 Ou3,0x COp4 Ou4,0x C ⊲ Op0 COp7⊳Ohx<br />

The amplitudes of the forces per length on the cylinder are obtained by<br />

integrating the pressure over the wetted surface of a cross-section (wetted<br />

circumference):<br />

x in the last vector indicates that all quantities are taken at the longitudinal<br />

coordinate x at the ship, i.e. the position of the strip under consideration. ℓ is<br />

the circumferential length coordinate of the wetted contour. We can write the<br />
