How to Evaluate Period for Fundamental Mode?

Period for Fundamental Mode evaluator uses Natural Free Oscillating Period of a Basin = (4*Length of Basin along Axis)/sqrt([g]*Water Depth at Harbor) to evaluate the Natural Free Oscillating Period of a Basin, The Period for Fundamental Mode formula is defined as the natural period of oscillation for the primary or lowest frequency mode of a system, such as a body of water or a coastal structure. This concept is significant because it helps engineers understand how the system will respond to various forces, such as waves, tides, and other environmental factors. Natural Free Oscillating Period of a Basin is denoted by Tn symbol.
