Abstract In this note, we consider the fall of an axisymmetric body in a perfect fluid over a ramp. It was shown in [12] that the possibility of a collision between the body and the ramp is related to the asymptotics of the so-called added mass when the distance between the ramp and the body goes to 0. We propose here a new method to compute this added mass, which provides simultaneously an approximation of an associated fluid velocity field in the gap between the ramp and the body.
