Compared with the classical analytical method, it can be seen that the presentmethod is simpler for a two-dimensional problem due to the comparable effort needed for the computation ofdiffraction potential and for that of radiated potential. To verify the correctness of the method, a classical example inthe reference is recomputed and the obtained results are in good accordance with those by use of other methods,which shows that the present method is correct.展开更多

The hydrodynamic coefficients of different conditions are obtained after the numeric method is validated through the comparisons between the numeric results and the analytic results of simple cases. The Biconjugate Gradient Stabilized (BiCGStab) algorithm, considered to be among the most powerful algorithm in solving linear systems, is employed to improve the efficiency of the analysis. The results presented here shed some new light on the behaviors of ocean structures in complex sea areas.展开更多
