Most of the non-acoustic methods for towed array shape estimation are based on the incorrect original Paidoussis equation. A comparison between solution to the original and revised Paidoussis equation is made to prove the significance of utilising the latter. In addition, considering relative characteristics of the revised Paidoussis equation and the critical point which exists on the cylinder, the minimum length of damping section added at the end of the cylinder is derived.
