    Nope, you're still making assumptions that are not there.

    I suggest you read:
    Dynamics of Marine Vehicles - R. Bhattacharyya
    Mechanics of Marine Vehicles - Clayton & Bishop
    Theory of Seakeeping - Korvin-Kroukovsky

    Then you'll start to understand.

    So what is your claim then?
    1) there are forces on both side of your equation
    2) there are moments on both side of your equation
    If neither is correct, I'm not making any assumptions, you just mixed forces and moments on the same equation.

    You wish to learn - fine, no problem.
    Thus I suggest you read the text books I cited, once you have read them..happy to answer your Qs.
    Otherwise this will go around in circles since you're not aware of the terminology and derivation of the formula used....seakeeping is one of thee, if not thee most complex aspects of naval architecture.
    It is not a one liner nor a sound bite...as such, too many aspect are interlinked, and require a degree of background knowledge as a prerequisite.

    "Dynamics of Marine Vehicles - R. Bhattacharyya"

    Second that one...an oft-used reference. ;-)

    Are you claiming that if I manage to read any of the books you suggested, I find this statement of yours written in there:
    I very much doubt that I would. Instead I assume to found something like:
    Or
    And that do chance the meaning of the equation completely. But it still means nothing in isolation, without also another equation educating on the dependence of F or M on waterplane area, speed of ship, speed of propagation of wave, etc...

    Well, as I said before you are very confused because you do not understand the terminology nor its definition.

    For example:

    That’s because you are unware of how seakeeping is defined and derived. As you are mixing and matching, as noted here:

    So….is it a force or is it a moment? Hmmm…YOU decide!

    Yet you seem to not like this statement:

    By your reply:

    A foil providing a force, is a restoring force. Thus, it is no different to the shape of the hull that provides reserve buoyancy when a vessel rolls or pitches. The “force” is the buoyancy force. This is the “c” component in the equation of motion. The restoring moment.

    Thus further understanding and definition which axis of motion you are referring to, when it is heave for example, it is just a force. When it is pitching/rolling it is a moment…thus which are YOU talking about as you cannot lump sway, heave etc with roll/pitching all into one. But for now, I put that down to your lack of knowledge in seakeeping. But, it doesn’t alter the fact that there is a “force”, whether it comes from the hull (its shape providing the reserve buoyancy) or via lifting device that is added as an appendage matters nowt – it is a restoring force.

    You also seem not to like that fact that some equations show F as the excitement. When you think it should be M – exciting moment. So, your bone of connection is merely semantics of how the equation is written, or rather the letter of the alphabet that is used. The fact that F is used rather than M…. oh my, then you better tell Professor Molland not to use “d” then as he does here:

    And others like::

    upload_2018-7-13_14-30-1.png
    and
    upload_2018-7-13_14-30-55.png

    They like 'F'..

    And so, just for clarity if you start to read any of the text you will find this:

    upload_2018-7-13_9-8-16.png

    I assume this will please you because this author uses M rather than F or D...!!!:confused:

    If you don’t like the fact that each author uses different letters for the terms that do not sit well with you, I would suggest you take it up with them.

    Best answer. If you start with this proposition, you will more likely get to the better answer.
