Xiao, Q. (author), Calvert, R. (author), Yan, S.Q. (author), Adcock, T.A.A. (author), van den Bremer, T.S. (author)Floating objects will drift due to the action of surface gravity waves. This drift will depart from that of a perfect Lagrangian tracer due to both viscous effects (non-potential flow) and wave–body interaction (potential flow). We examine the drift of freely floating objects in regular (non-breaking) deep-water wave fields for object sizes that...journal article 2024
