Abstract
A method for evaluating the exciting force and moment on surface ships as well as on fully submerged bodies in oblique waves is developed, based on the assumptions of long regular waves and slender bodies. The differential equation, together with the boundary conditions, for each component of the velocity potential is studied. Momentum theorems for slender-body sections are derived and applied to the evaluation of stripwise force and moment on bodies in the presence of a free surface. The result is found to be directly related to the added masses of the body sections. Lateral added masses of body sections in the presence of a free surface are investigated in detail and numerical values are presented for Lewis sections.
