Abstract
Linearized potential wave theory is applied to calculate the wave exciting loads on a CALM buoy in water of finite depth. The solution is based on the domain decomposition method and the unknown constants in the velocity potentials are determined by matched eigenfunction expansions. A comparison of the analytical solution with published experimental results on a vertical truncated cylinder is performed as part of the validation process. The effects of the disk on the wave exciting forces are discussed.
