The growth and collapse of a bubble under a floating body are simulated by using the boundary element method with linear elements to predict the damage of ship bodies induced by underwater explosion. The three-dimensional deformation of the bubble, the translation and rotation of the floating body, and the motion of water surface are taken into account in the simulation. It is shown that the bubble deforms three-dimensionally, and the liquid jet threads the bubble due to the interactions among the bubble, the floating body, and the water surface; the directions of the bubble translation and the liquid jet depend on the initial location of the bubble. The Kelvin impulse is found to be useful in evaluating the translational motion of the bubble. Also, the horizontal translational motion of the bubble is much dependent on the rotational motion of a floating body; when the moment of inertia of the floating body is small, the largest horizontal translation is realized between the axis of flotation and the edge of the floating body. It is also shown that there exists an initial horizontal bubble location where the moment of force acting on the floating body has the maximum value.
