The non-linear hydrodynamic actions induced by the rigid body rotations and the variations of instantaneous wetted surface area were included in the second order analysis. The first order wave potentials and responses, which are sure to make the major contributions to the second order hydrodynamic actions, were obtained by employing the translating and pulsating source Green function and the Kelvin steady wave flow solution based on the linear three-dimensional hydroelasticity theory. The influences of the forward speed and the steady wave flow on the responses, and the differences of the predicted non-linear responses were illustrated by the numerical examples of a SWATH ship traveling with forward speed of 12 kn in irregular waves.展开更多
