Abstract
When the wavelength of the incident wave is short, the total surface potential on a floating body is found to be 2∅ i & O (m-l∅ i) on the lit surface and O (m-l∅ j) on the shadow surface where ~b i is the potential of the incident wave and m the wave number in water of finite depth. The present approximation for wave exciting forces and moments is reasonably good up to X/L ∅ 1 where h is the wavelength and L the characteristic length of the body.
