Abstract: Comparisions between postulations on the basis of the Morison equation and theindependence principle on the one hand and well known test results for waveforces on tilted piles on the other hand show discrepancies.New tests whichinvestigate these discrepancies justify certain doubts and prove that the useof the usualapproach can sometimes lead to particular underastimation of theactual forces.
