Summary

A theoretical analysis is made of the effect described in the title. It is shown that both the eigen frequencies of the inertial waves and the moment produced by the inertial wave pressure distribution are independent of the location of the off-axis cylinder. Hence, one can use Stewartson's tables computed for a centrally located cylinder to calculate the frequencies and residues for an eccentrically located cylinder. (Author).
