Abstract
The response of a rectangular dock to waves incoming from the sea has been investigated and a thorough theory developed. Certain properties of the involved operators have allowed us to partition the wave number axis into many equal intervals in which the response curve can be studied separately. Thus it has been possible to obtain information about the modes that can be excited in the dock, their amplification and their wave number band width, as a function of the ratio between the length and the width of the dock, and of the length and angle of incidence of the external plane wave.
