dc.description.abstract | The scattering of long water waves by an array of bodies is investigated using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. Two particular geometries are considered, these are a group of vertical cylinders extending throughout the depth and a group of floating hemispheres. From these solutions, the low-frequency limit of the ratio of the mean drift force on a group of N bodies to that on a single body is calculated. For a wide range of circumstances this drift force ratio is N2 which is in agreement with previous numerical work. Further drift force enhancement is possible for certain configurations of vertical cylinders. | en |
