Abstract

In order to examine the irregular wave forces on a small diameter cylinder, laboratory experiments have been conducted on water particle velocities and wave forces with various kinds of irregular waves. As the results, it is indicated that the time variation and the spectral distribution of wave forces can be calculated adequately from the water level variations by using the methods proposed by Reid1' and Borgman2' respectively. Moreover, with respect to the irregular wave forces on a large diameter cylinder, a new calculation method was shown by means of applying Reid's linear filters1' to MacCamy and Fuchs's diffraction theory.
