Abstract

A thin plate of infinite extent floating on a perfect fluid of finite depth is subjected to a central concentrated dynamic uplift force. For a specified upward displacement time-history at the center of the plate, the time- history of the uplift force potential is the solution of a Volterra integral equation of the first kind. A model problem is used to shed light on the ill-posed nature of the forced dynamic uplift problem and two canonical problems are discussed.
