Abstract
A non-linear mathematical model of diffraction theory is formulated to evaluate the wave forces on large cylinders. An attempt is made to amend the coefficient of mass C M arising in the Morison equation on the linear theory by introducing second-order effects on the irrotational flow part of the wave loading. Analytical solutions are obtained and compared with the experimental data collected by the Hydraulics Laboratory of the National Research Council of Canada, Ottawa. The comparison shows favourable agreement.
