Abstract

This paper applies Lagrangian method to discuss the sudden starting of a floating hotly in deep water and the analytical'solutions are obtained.It is known from the numerical results that the disturbing domain extends and the dynamic pressure also increases when the breadth of the floating body keeps constant and its depth increases.
