摘要

Chapter 18 introduced three components that are necessary to predict the motion of floating structures: (1) waterplane stiffness, (2) total mass, and (3) wave forcing amplitude. In this chapter, we will reveal how these components fit together to ultimately produce closed-form equations that describe the dynamics of floating bodies across all six degrees of freedom for waves approaching from any arbitrary direction. For simplicity, we will limit our analysis to structures supported by rectangular pontoons.
