What is Wave Drift Forces on Semi-Submersibles about?

This document discusses predicting mean and low frequency wave forces on semi-submersible structures through computational methods based on potential theory. It provides background on the importance of these second-order wave forces and how they can excite large amplitude low frequency motions in moored structures. The paper presents a method for computing these forces by direct integration of pressure on the wetted hull and compares results of computations of horizontal drift forces on a six-column semi-su
