โฆ Synopsis
The scattering of long gravitational waves by a floating elastic plate is investigated using linear shallow-water theory. For a plate of arbitrary shape, the solution of the problem is reduced to a system of boundary integral equations. Using the example of a rectangular plate, the solution obtained is compared with existing theoretical and experimental results. The behaviour of the buckling of a rectangular plate and of a strip of constant width is compared for oblique incidence of surface waves.

The steady-state behaviour of a floating elastic plate of bounded dimensions acted upon by a localized external load is investigated using linear shallow water theory. In the case of a plate of arbitrary shape, the problem reduces to solving a system of boundary-value integral equations supplemented
A solution of the linear hydroelastic problem of the steady forced oscillations of a floating platform acted upon by a localized external load is given. The platform is assumed to be fairly thin and is modelled by an elastic plate with free edges. The method employed involves decomposing the region
