Abstract :
Diffraction of incoming surface waves by a very large floating platform (VLFP) is investigated for three cases of water depth: infinite, finite or shallow. An analytical study for the deflection of the platform, reflection and transmission of incoming waves is presented. The problem is solved for two forms of the platform: a strip of infinite length and a half-plane plate.
