Abstract
This paper describes the heave, surge, sway motion characteristics of a twin circular hull semisubmersible model. The theoretical prediction based on linear potential theory have been correlated with experimental results. Parametric studies have been carried out to find out the effect of various parameters and to identify the important ones.
