This paper introduces the experimental results of sloshing model tests carried out at Seoul National University. Two 1/50-scale tanks, i.e., 2D and 3D models with the same shape, were manufactured for the comparative study. Particular interest was taken in the differences in impact pressures between the 2D and 3D models. Regular motion tests were conducted for different filling depths. For each...

It is difficult to evaluate the sloshing load acting on a fixed roof of tank because it depends on the collision of the liquid to the roof. In this paper, the SPH simulation was introduced to evaluate the load acting on a fixed roof. The results obtained by the simulation showed good agreement with those obtained from other method. In addition, the effect of the roof-liquid clearance on the slo...

Sloshing is a well-known phenomenon in liquid storage tanks subjected to base or body motions. In recent years the use of multiple vertical baffles for reducing the sloshing effects in tanks subjected to earthquake has not been taken into consideration so much. On the other hand, although some of the existing computer programs are capable to model sloshing phenomenon with acceptable accuracy, t...

The transient coupling between the vessel motion and liquid sloshing in multiple tanks is investigated. External disturbance factors (e.g., spring constraint or force field) that might affect the oscillation characters of the coupling system are not involved so that the vessel motion is only excited by the liquid sloshing in tanks. The analytical solution for this coupling problem has been deri...

Abstract This paper proposes a learning reference governor (LRG) approach to enforce state and control constraints in systems for which an accurate model is unavailable. enables the gradually improve command tracking performance through while enforcing during after completed. The can be performed either on black-box type of system or directly hardware. After introducing LRG algorithm outlining ...

A mathematical model is developed for calculating liquid sloshing effects such as hydrodynamic pressures and forces in half-full spherical containers under arbitrary external excitation. The velocity potential is expressed in a series form, where each term is the product of a time function and the associated spatial function. Because of the spherical configuration, the problem is not separable ...

Vertical sloshing of liquid-filled tanks has been shown to induce substantial dissipative effects. Building upon these previous results obtained on simpler systems, a scaled wing prototype is presented here, equipped with fuel tank that allows the observation liquid and quantification induced dynamic Based experiments conducted at 50% filling level for baffled model, additional damping effects ...
