Application and Verification of Deepwater Green Function for Water Waves

摘要

An efficient method for the numerical evaluation of the free-surface Green function for deep-water application was presented by Telste & Noblesse (1986) and again by Ponizy et al (1994). A FORTRAN code was include in their 1986 paper. The numerical method makes use of known mathematical functions. Numerical values of some of these mathe- matical functions were depicted, but no verification on the accuracy of the Green function routine in an application was given. The purpose of this paper is to compare their numer- ical values in the near-field and far-field regions with other similar computation for the infinite-depth Green function.
