Abstract

The results of solving the linear problem of steady-state oscillations of a horizontal cylinder submerged in fluid on whose upper boundary a semi-infinite elastic plate with free edge floats are given. The remaining part of the fluid surface is free. The contour-distributed mass source method is used. The corresponding Green's function is constructed using eigenfunction expansions. The hydrodynamic load and the amplitudes of vertical displacements of the free surface and elastic plate are calculated. Equivalence relations which demonstrate both symmetry of the apparent mass and damping factors and connection of the damping factors with the wave amplitudes in the far field are derived.
