Wavemaking by a Thin Ship: Second Order Nonlinear Effects

Abstract

The reporting investigates second order terms of the expansion in the beam/length ratio of the potential of flow past a thin ship. The ship is in a steady translational motion, in water of infinite depth and infinite lateral extent, within its central plane of symmetry. Heave and trim are not taken into account.
