Steady and Oscillatory Flow Forces on a Mark 6 Moored Mine

Abstract

A theoretical investigation is made of the forces acting upon a moored mine due to uniform and oscillatory fluid flow. The general problem is discussed analytically and approximate methods are presented to ascertain the forces to be expected.
