The fundamental solutions to the wavemaker boundary value problem (WMBVP)are given for 2D channels, 3D basins, and circular basins. The solutions are givenin algebraic equations that replace integral and differential calculus. The solutionsare generic and apply to both full- and partial-draft piston and hinged wave-makers; to double-articulated wavemakers, and to directional wave basins. TheWMBVP is solved by conformal mapping and by domain mapping. The loads ona wavemaker are connected to the radiation boundary value problem for semi-immersed bodies and demonstrate the connection of these loads to the added massand radiation damping coefficients required to compute the dynamic response oflarge Lagrangian solid bodies.
2.1. Introduction
Wavemaker theories play several important roles in coastal and ocean engineering.The most important role is the application to laboratory wavemakers for bothwavemaker designs and wave experiments. A second role for wavemaker theoriesis to compute a scalar radiated wave potential to compute the wave-induced loadson large solid bodies applying potential wave theory. The displacements and rota-
tions of a semi-immersed six degrees-of-freedom large Lagrangian solid body arerelated to the displacements and rotations of wavemakers. The boundary between aplanar wavemaker and an ideal fluid requires special care because the fluid motion

is an Eulerian field with time and space as the independent variables, and theplanar wavemaker is a Lagrangian solid body with time and the wavemaker as theindependent variables. Consequently, the kinematic boundary condition will be dif-ferent from the free surface boundary that separates two Eulerian fluid fields of airand water. The boundary between the fluid and wavemaker separates a Eulerian
field (the fluid) from a Lagrangian body (the wavemaker), and the wavemakerkinematic boundary condition (WMKBC) must convert the Lagrangian wavemakermotion to a Eulerian field motion in order that the independent variables for bothdependent motion variables are equivalent. This may be accomplished by multi-plying the Lagrangian motion of the wavemaker by the unit normal to the boundary.Because the unit normal is a function of space and the Lagrangian wavemakermotion is a function of time, the product will produce a motion that is a functionof both space and time that are the independent variables of the Eulerian fluidfield. Although this fact is not central to the WMBVP, it is an important con-
nection between the WMBVP and the radiation potential boundary value problemfor semi-immersed large Lagrangian solid bodies.1
The formulae for computing the two fundamental fluid unknowns for an incom-pressible fluid of the velocity q(x , z, t) and the pressure p(x , z, t) from a scalarvelocity potential (x , z, t) are given first. The classical linear WMBVP for dimen-sionless 2D planar wavemaker is reviewed for two types of double-articulated planarwavemakers. The sway X1(t) displacement of a full-draft piston wavemaker and theroll 5(t) rotation of a hinged wavemaker are connected directly to the sway dis-placement and the roll rotation of a semi-immersed large Lagrangian solid body. Inthis review, integral calculus formulae for computing the integrals that are requiredto compute the coefficients of the eigenseries for the fluid motion, to compute theloads on the wavemaker and the average power required to generate the propagatingwaves are replaced by generic algebraic formulae. For example, an integral equationthat is required to compute the nth eigenseries coefficient Cn for the nth eigen-function n(Kn,z/h) from a wavemaker shape function (z/h) may be computedsymbolically and expressed by a dimensionless algebraic formula In(,,b,d,Kn),that is given by
Cn = h01(z/h)d(z/h)
n(z/h)d(z/h) = In(,,b,d,Kn). (2.1)
The coefficient in (2.1) may then be computed very efficiently by substitution intoalgebraic formulae in all subsequent applications. Next a dimensionless theory forboth amplitude-modulated (AM) and phase-modulated (PM) circular wavemakers isreviewed. Then, a dimensionless theory for double-actuated wavemakers is reviewed.Following that, a dimensionless directional wavemaker theory for large wave basinsbased on a WKBJ approximation1 is reviewed. Next, a theory for sloshing waves
due to transverse motions of a segmented wavemaker in a narrow wave channel isreviewed. Then, 2D planar wavemakers are mapped to a unit circle by conformalmapping and to a fixed rectangular domain by domain mapping; and both the linearand nonlinear wavemaker solutions are computed numerically.

Two generic planar wavemaker configurations are shown in Figs. 2.1(a) and 2.1(b).The fluid motion may be obtained from the negative gradient of a dimensional scalarvelocity potential (x , z, t) according to
q(x , z, t) = u(x , z, t)ex + w(x , z, t)ez = 2(x , z, t), (2.2a)

2.2.1. Eigenfunction solution to the WMBVP
Because all of the boundary conditions defined by (2.5b)(2.5e) are now prescribedfor constant values of the independent variables (x, z) and the dimensionlessparameter kh = O(1), a solution by separation of independent variables1 issuggested according to
(x, z) = X(x) Z(z). (2.9)The eigenseries solution may be written compactly as1,3,4

The eigenseries (2.10a) may be separated into a propagating p(x , z, t; k) andevanescent eigenmodes e(x , z, t; n) or local wave components3 according to

The wave number k = 2/ where = wavelength. Because the numerical value ofkhmust be computed from an eigenvalue problem in the vertical z coordinate, equiv-alence of the eigenvalue k to the wave number 2/ requires a pseudo-horizontalboundary condition of periodicity given by k = 2/ and (x + , z) = (x, z). Itis computationally efficient to normalize the eigenseries in (2.10a) according to
n(Kn,z/h) =cosh Knh(1 + z/h)
Nn; n = 1, 2, . . . , (2.11a)

where the orthonormal eigenfunction n(,) is dimensionless.
2.2.2. Evaluation of Cn by WM vertical displacement (z/h)

2.2.3. Decay distance of evanescent eigenmodes n 2
Numerical solutions and experimental measurements of ocean and coastal designsrequire that the KRBC (2.5d) be applied far enough away so that only the prop-agating eigenmode for n = 1 in (2.12) is measurable. The evanescent eigenseries
in (2.12) for n 2 will decay spatially at least as fast as the smallest evanescenteigenvalue 2. This eigenvalue must be 2h > (n 3/2) = /2. If the smallestvalue for 2h > /2, then 2 > /2h and (x, z) exp(x/2h). For the valuesof the evanescent eigenseries to be less than 1% of their values at the wavemaker,(x, z) exp(xd/2h) = 0.01 and xd/(2h) = 4.6 3/2, and the minimumdecay distance is xd 3h.

The hydrodynamic component ofF1(t) may be separated linearly into a propagatingand an evanescent component that are related to the piston wavemaker translationalvelocity and acceleration, respectively, from the real part of
F1(t) = Re{[11(S) + 11(iS2)]expi(t + )}= 11(S2 sin(t + )) 11(S cos(t + )) (2.18c)= Re{11X1(t) 11X1(t)}, (2.18d)

Because the asymptotic behavior of the evanescent eigenseries Km(nr) dependson the mode m(1), it is not possible to specify a minimum distance from the wave-maker equilibrium boundary at r = b where the evanescent eigenvalues are lessthan 1% of their value at the circular wavemaker boundary. The wave field must becomputed far away from the wavemaker, and it is understood that far away mustbe computed uniquely for each radial mode m for either an AM or PM circularwavemaker. The evaluation of the power, forces, and moments, and added mass andradiation damping coefficients for both AM and PM circular wavemakers are givenby Hudspeth.1
2.4. Directional Wavemakers
Directional wavemakers are vertically segmented wavemakers that undulate sinu-
ously and, consequently, are also called snake wavemakers. Segmented directionalwavemakers may be driven either in the middle of each vertical segment or at thejoint between vertical segments. Because of these two methods of wave generation,parasitic waves are formed along the wavemaker due to either the discontinuity of

Theorthonormal eigenfunctions (2.30b) and (2.30c) are applicable strictly only for con-stant depth wave basins; however, they may be applied to slowly varying depth wavebasins if (2.30b) and (2.30c) are considered to be evaluated only locally over rela-tively small horizontal length scales (e.g., several wavelengths ), where the depthmay be considered to be locally equal to a constant by a Taylor series expansion ofthe depth.1
Substituting (2.30a) into (2.29a) yields the following 2D Helmholtz equation:
22(x, y) + K2n(x, y) = 0; x 0, B y +B. (2.31)

2.5. Sloshing Waves in a 2D Wave Channel
A long rectangular wave channel with a horizontal flat bottom, two rigid vertical
sidewalls, and a wavemaker may generate either 2D, long-crested progressive wavesor two types of transverse waves, viz.,
(1) sloshing waves that are excited directly by transverse motion of the wavemakeror
(2) cross waves that are excited parametrically by the progressive waves at asub-harmonic of the wavemaker frequency.
The WMBVP for 3D sloshing waves is identical to (2.5) for planar 2D wave-makers except for the KWMBC at x = 0 and an additional kinematic boundary
condition on the sidewalls of the 2D wave channel at y = B in Fig. 2.4. Thekinematic and dynamic wave fields may be computed from a dimensional 3D scalar

form that may be treated as a steady flow following a Galileantransformation from afixed inertial coordinate system to a noninertial moving coordinate system. Domainmapping is a transformation of the wavemaker geometry into a fixed computationaldomain where a solution may be computed efficiently.
2.6.1. Conformal mapping1
Conformal mapping of the WMBVP provides a global solution that accuratelyaccounts for the singular behavior at all irregular points. The irregular points inthe physical wavemaker domain are transformed into both weak and strong singularkernels in a Fredholm integral equation. The two irregular points on the WMBVPboundary are located at (1) the intersection between the free-surface and the wave-maker boundary and (2) the intersection between the horizontal bottom and thewavemaker boundary. These two irregular points exhibit integrable weakly singularkernels. The far-field radiation boundary exhibits a strongly singular kernel and sig-nificantly affects the solution. The irregular frequencies3,4 are included in the globalsolution by the Fredholm alternative. A theory for the planar WMBVP computesa global solution by a conformal mapping of the physical wavemaker boundaryto a unit disk that includes the motion of an inviscid fluid near irregular pointsthat are illustrated in Fig. 2.6. A numerical solution to Laplaces equation in atransformed unit disk may be computed from a Fredholm integral equation. TheWMBVP defined by (2.5) is transformed into complex-valued analytical functionswhere the complex-valued coordinates are defined as z = x + iy. The coordinates
for the semi-infinite wave channel in Fig. 2.1(a) must be transformed to complex-valued coordinates z. The fluid velocity q(x,y,t) and dynamic pressure p(x,y,t)may be computed from a scalar velocity potential (x,y,t) according to
q(x,y,t) = (x,y,t); p(x,y,t) = (x,y,t)t
. (2.43a,b)
The WMBVP and Type I wavemaker shape function are given by (2.5)(2.7).There are both Irregular (I) and Regular (R) points at the intersections between
the Smooth (S) and Critical (C) boundaries B1 and B2 in the WMBVP as illustratedin Fig. 2.6 where these two boundary intersection points are identified as P1 and P2.The classification of the boundary points P1 and P2 in Fig. 2.6 depends on (1) theboundary conditions i(Pj) and (2) the continuity of the boundaries Bm and theirderivatives where i, j, and m = 1 or 2. A conformal mapping of the semi-infinitewave channel strip in the physical plane will yield a Fredholm integral equation,6,7
where these critical points may be transformed to singular points that are integrableover a smooth continuous mapped boundary.
2.6.1.1. Conformal mapping to the unit disk 1

Q =i Z (i + Z)i + Z (i Z) =

where 1 < < +1. Changing variables to circular cylindrical coordinates by

the unit disk may be transformed into functions of the copolar trio of Jacobianelliptic functions. The transformed WMBVP in circular cylindrical coordinatesis given by Hudspeth.1 A general solution to the transformed WMBVP may be
written as

where ij is the Kronecker delta function. Substituting (2.50) into the genericboundary conditions on each of the six arcs on the perimeter of the unit disk illus-trated in Fig. 2.13, multiplying each of these six boundary conditions by a memberof the set of the orthogonal series in (2.50), integrating over the interval of orthogo-

2.7. Domain Mapping
Domain mapping of the WMBVP12 follows the theory by Joseph.13 The physical
fluid domain shown in Fig. 2.14 for the fully nonlinear WMBVP is mapped to afixed computational fluid domain, and the discretized coupled free-surface boundaryconditions are computed by an implicit CrankNicholson (CN) method.14,15 Ateach iteration of the CN method, the potential field is computed by the conjugategradient method.15 The wavemaker motion (y/h,t) is assumed to be periodic withperiod T = 2/, and the WMBVP with the surface tension T is given by
