Forces on a horizontal cylinder due to nonlinear waves

A horizontal cylinder, located near the floor of a two dimensional wave channel was subjected to a train of non-linear gravity waves. The horizontal and vertical forces were measured and presented in dimensionless form. Experimental values of horizontal and vertical force coefficients are presented...
