Newly updated and translated into English for the first time, this standalone handbook perfectly combines background and theory with real-world experiments. All key topics are covered, including environmental conditions, wave theories, hydrostatics, and wave and current loads, with emphasis on nonlinear wave body interaction. Focus is given to model testing, an important component in the design of offshore structures. Recent results on the hydrodynamics of perforated structures, moonpool and gap resonance, and third-order interaction effects, have been added to this updated version. Based on practical experience from multiple industry collaborations, combined with lectures that have been honed and improved over more than 30 years, the pedagogical, real-world approach in this book make it an ideal companion for graduate students and researchers as well as ocean engineers.
