13.42 Design Principles for Ocean Vehicles 1. Forces on Large Structures
... For discussion in this section we will be considering bodies that are quite large compared to the wave amplitude and thus the inertial component of force dominates over the viscous forces. Typically we can neglect the viscous force when it is less that 10% of the total force, except near sharp edges ...

Hunting oscillation

Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
