RESONANCE IN HARBORS OF ARBITRARY SHAPE

A theory is presented for analyzing the wave induced oscillations in an arbitrary shape harbor with constant depth which is connected to the open-sea. The solution is formulated as an integral equation which is then approximated by a matrix equation. The final solution is obtained by equating, at the harbor entrance, the wave amplitude and its normal derivative obtained from the solutions for the regions outside and inside the harbor.
