Symmetry relations are derived for the added mass and damping of structures where the shape is unchanged by rotation about the vertical axis through an angle $\theta = 2 {\rm \pi}/N$ with the integer $N\ge 3$. For this type of structure, the added mass and damping for horizontal translation are the same for all directions, as in the case of axisymmetric structures. The same symmetry applies to rotations about horizontal axes. The principal application is to offshore structures and other bodies floating on the free surface or submerged, but the same symmetry relations apply more generally to unsteady body motions in an ideal fluid.
