heal.abstract	The paper deals with the numerical and experimental investigation of the exciting wave loads on a vertical truncated cylinder placed in a channel and exposed to the action of regular waves. The effect of wave reflections from the tank walls have exactly been taken into account in the numerical study using the method of images. An insight into the relevant importance of the tank confinement effects has been given through a parametric numerical study. The numerical predictions are compared with experimental data and the relevant importance of higher order effects for steeper waves is demonstrated.	en
