Abstract: | The radiation and the diffraction of linear water waves by an infinitely long floating rectangular structure submerged in water of finite depth with leeward boundary being a vertical wall are analyzed in this paper by using the method of separation of variables. Analytical expressions for the radiated and diffracted potentials are derived as infinite series with unknown coefficients determined by the eigenfunction expansion matching method. The expressions for wave forces and hydrodynamic coefficients are given. A comparison is made between the results obtained by the present analytical solution and those obtained by the boundary element method. By using the present analytical solution, the hydrodynamic influences of the submergence, the width, the thickness of the structure, and the distance between the structure and the wall on the wave forces and hydrodynamic coefficients are discussed in detail. |
