In order to account for first order interaction among the cylinders, the body boundary condition is satisfied for each cylinder considering the scattered wave field from other cylinders in an iterative way. After each iteration, coefficients in the partial wave decomposition of the wave potential are modified. Convergence is fast for the whole range of frequencies and for a large number of bodies, compared with exact algebraic methods of Linton and Evans [J. Fluid Mech. 46 (1990) 549] and Kagemoto and Yue [J. Fluid Mech. 166 (1) (1986) 189].eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHydrodynamic InteractionDiffraction Of Water WavesWave Forces On Multiple CylindersAn iterative procedure for the diffraction of water waves by multiple cylindersArticle10.1016/j.oceaneng.2004.01.0053111-12143714462-s2.0-3142618939Q1WOS:000223209900007Q2
