This　paper　presents　an　analytical　method　to　investigate　the　multiple　scattering　problem　within　arrays　of　vertical　bottom-mounted　circular　cylinders　subjected　to　linear　incident　waves.　Based　on　the　Laplace　equation　and　boundary　conditions　on　the　seabed　and　surface,　a　formulation　of　a　two-dimensional　multiple　scattering　problem　is　first　obtained　by　using　the　variable　separation　method.　Furthermore,　the　analytical　solution　of　the　wave　forces　on　multiple　circular　cylinders　is　derived,　which　consists　of　the　incident　wave　force　due　to　the　linear　incident　wave　and　the　scattered　wave　forces　considering　multiple　scattering　waves.　The　presented　analytical　solution　is　validated　by　comparing　its　results　with　a　numerical　method,　and　the　result　shows　that　the　analytical　solution　is　in　good　agreement　with　the　numerical　one.　Finally,　the　multiple　scattering　analysis　is　conducted　on　arrays　of　cylinders　with　different　incident　wave　numbers,　distances　between　cylinders,　and　quantities.
