A submerged sphere advancing in a regular finite depth water wave at constant forward speed is analysed by linearized velocity potential. The solution is ob­tained by the multipole expansion extended from that developed for zero speed. Numerical results are obtained for wave-making resistance and lift, added masses, damping coefficients and exciting forces. Far field equations are also derived for calculating damping coefficients and exciting forces. They are used to check the results obtained from integrating pressure over the body surface. Excellent agree­ment is found.

The linearized problem of water-wave reflexion by a thin barrier of arbitrary permeability is considered with the restriction that the flow be two-dimensional. The formulation includes the special case of transmission through one or more gaps in an otherwise impermeable barrier. The general problem is reduced to a set of integral equations using standard techniques. These equations are then solved using a special decomposition of the finite depth source potential which allows accurate solutions to be obtained economically. A representative range of solutions is obtained numerically for both finite and infinite depth problems.
