The hydrodynamic loading on a solid body moving in a viscous fluid can be strongly affected by its proximity to a surface. In this article, we calculate the hydrodynamic load on an infinitely long rigid beam of zero thickness that is undergoing small amplitude oscillations. The presence of a solid surface an arbitrary distance from the beam is rigorously accounted for using a boundary integral formulation.

- The convention adopted for the Reynolds number conforms with Ref. 37. We note that the Reynolds number is often associated with the nonlinear convective inertial term in the NavierStokes equation. This latter convention has not been adopted here.
- This can be verified by plotting the pressure and vorticity obtained in this manner.
