Abstract
The total relative motion between a ship and the sea surface, including the effects of the ship motions, the incident waves, the diffracted waves, and the radiated waves, is discussed. The radiated and diffracted wave components are calculated using the theory of Salvesen, Tuck, and Faltinsen (1970) with the zero-speed potentials determined by fully three-dimensional calculations. Comparisons with experiments and other theoretical calculations for a simple mathematical hull form are given. The proposed theory shows significant improvement over slender-body theory for the diffraction component and is equal to or better than strip theory for the radiation component.
