T&R Bulletin 1-12: Two Papers on the Hydrodynamic Theory of Heaving and Pitching of a Ship (1966)

In problems of the seaworthiness of a ship the study of the oscillation of the ship has an important place; it is necessary for the explanation of the mechanism of the phenomenon as a whole in order in order that one may foresee and guide in a desirable direction the seagoing qualities of a ship being design.

The solution to the basic problems of ship oscillation is closely connected with no other less important problems of seaworthiness such as the wetness of a ship and its resistance when moving through waves.
