APDE seminar @UPV/EHU: Water wave radiation by a submerged disc

Abstract

The interaction between water waves and objects is of great importance for the study of structures used in offshore and coastal engineering. In this talk, a thin plate is submerged below the free surface of deep water. The problem is reduced to a hypersingular integral equation of the second kind over the surface of a unit disc. This problem will be analysed for particular cases. Numerical results will be presented for the heave added mass and damping coefficients.
