First- and second-order analysis of resonant waves between adjacent barges

Water wave diffraction by two parallel closely spaced rectangular barges is investigated, to characterise the general problem of LNG offloading from a floating plant into a shuttle tanker. It is well known that large free-surface motions, in the gap between the hulls, are predicted by diffraction th...
