Influence of cavitation on the dynamic response of hydrofoils

The dynamic response of any structure submerged in water is significantly modified by the effect of added mass. The inertia of the fluid that the body must accelerate during its vibrational motion decreases its natural frequencies. This frequency shift between the air and still water conditions must...
