    Abstract: For convection in a porous medium the dependence of the Nusselt number on the Rayleigh number is examined to sixth order using an expansion for the Rayleigh number proposed by Kuo (1961). The results show very good agreement with experiment. Additionally, the abrupt change which is observed in the heat transport at a supercritical Rayleigh number may be explained by a breakdown of Darcy's law.

    Abstract: A boundary-integral method is developed for computing first-order and mean second-order wave forces on floating bodies with small forward speed in three dimensions. The method is based on applying Green's theorem and linearizing the Green function and velocity potential in the forward speed. The velocity potential on the wetted body surface is then given as the solution of two sets of integral equations with unknowns only on the body. The equations contain no water-line integral, and the free-surface integral decays rapidly. The Timman-Newman symmetry relations for the added mass and damping coefficients are extended to the case when the double-body flow around the body is included in the free-surface condition. The linear wave exciting forces are found both by pressure integration and by a generalized far-field form of the Haskind relations. The mean drift force is found by far-field analysis. All the derivations are made for an arbitrary wave heading. A boundary-element program utilizing the new method has been developed. Numerical results and convergence tests are presented for several body geometries. It is found that the wave exciting forces and the mean drift forces are most influenced by a small forward speed. Values of the wave drift damping coefficient are computed. It is found that interference phenomena may lead to negative wave drift damping for bodies of complicated shape.
