Description/Abstract

The vibration of structural members towed astern
of a surface vessel has been modelled variously by strings and
beams, neither of which accounts for the viscosity of water.
The work of Cortinez and Laura accounts for viscosity as a
damper. An application of their method to towfish systems and
the vibrational modes which result are described.
