Abstract

Second-order wave-body problem with/without a small forward speed is considered. One of the difficulties of the formulation of the second-order wave-problem in the inertial coordinate system is the higher-order derivatives on the right-hand side of the body boundary conditions. It is difficult to get accurate results for the higher-order derivatives on the mean body surface with high curvatures. For a body with sharp corners, if the body boundary conditions are obtained by Taylor expanding about the mean body surface, the resulting integral equation involving the higher-order derivatives of the velocity potential in the integrand is not integrable.
