A second-order nonlinear diffraction theory is developed for a
large diameter circular cylinder under the action of surface gravity
waves of finite amplitude in water of-finite depth. Boundary value
problems are derived by using a perturbation expansion and the
solutions for the diffracted waves are given in terms of Fredholm...
