Abstract

This paper presents an analytical method to investigate the multiple scattering problem within arrays of vertical bottom-mounted circular cylinders subjected to linear incident waves. Based on the Laplace equation and boundary conditions on the seabed and surface, a formulation of a two-dimensional multiple scattering problem is first obtained by using the variable separation method. Furthermore, the analytical solution of the wave forces on multiple circular cylinders is derived, which consists of the incident wave force due to the linear incident wave and the scattered wave forces considering multiple scattering waves. The presented analytical solution is validated by comparing its results with a numerical method, and the result shows that the analytical solution is in good agreement with the numerical one. Finally, the multiple scattering analysis is conducted on arrays of cylinders with different incident wave numbers, distances between cylinders, and quantities.
