Time- vs. Frequency-domain Identification of Parametric Radiation Force Models for Marine Structures at Zero Speed

The dynamics describing the motion response of a marine structure in waves can be represented within a linear framework by the Cummins Equation. This equation contains a convolution term that represents the component of the radiation forces associated with fluid memory effects. Several methods have...
