Solution of the Radiation Problem by the B-Spline Higher Order Kelvin Panel Method for an Oscillating Cylinder Advancing in the Free Surface

  • Published : 2002.03.01

Abstract

Numerical solution of the forward-speed radiation problem for a half-immersed cylinder advancing in regular waves is presented by making use of the improved Green integral equation in the frequency domain. The B-spline higher order panel method is employed stance the potential and its derivative are unknown at the same time. The present numerical solution of the improved Green integral equation by the B-spline higher order Kelvin panel method is shown to be free of irregular frequencies which are present in the Green integral equation using the forward-speed Kelvin-type Green function.
