The improved Green integral equation of overdetermined type applied to the radiation problem for an oscillating cylinder in the presence of weak current is presented. A two-dimensional Green function for the weak current is also presented. The present numerical solution of the Improved Green integral equation by the B-spline higher order Kelvin panel method is shown to be free of irregular frequencies which are present in the usual Green integral equation.

The improved Green integral equation for the calculation of time-harmonic potentials in the radiation diffraction problem about a freely floating body in the presence of moderate or weak current is presented. The forward-speed Green function presented by Brard is used. The correct free surface boundary conditions on the physical free surface are employed as well as an appropriate boundary conditions on the non-physical inner free surface. The default in the existing Green integral equation as well as in the source integral equation is discussed in detail.

The Green integral equation for the calculation of the forward-speed time-harmonic radiation-diffraction potentials IS derived. The forward-speed Green function presented by Brard is used and the correct free surface boundary condition for the Green function is imposed. The cause of the mistakes in the existing Green integral equation is also pointed out.
