Report of study using Ship Dynamic Test Machine at Richmond Field Station of University of California, Berkeley; under two-dimensional conditions, experiments give values of peak pressure of same order as those recorded on ships slamming at sea, but very much smaller than would be expected from existing theories; new theoretical work is presented which takes into account air trapped between model and water surface, and of both compressible and incompressible water movement; this shows good general agreement with experiments, though further work is needed to confirm some of assumptions made.
