Liquid sloshing is a common phenomenon in the transporting of liquid tanks. Liquid waves lead to fluctuating forces on the tank wall. If these fluctuations are not predicted or controlled, they can lead to large forces and momentum. Baffles can control liquid sloshing fluctuations. One numerical method, widely used to model the liquid sloshing phenomena is Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)....

Sloshing is an important issue for LNG tanks and in general when partially filled tanks are on-board of a vessel. This resonance phenomenon may be connected with complex motions of the filled liquid that can couple with the ship motions and can represent a danger for the tank strucure and for the stability of the ship. In this context, it is very important to identify the possible scenarios ass...

Sloshing interaction in ship collisions is studied both experimentally and numerically. The rapid change in ship motions resulting from contact loading in collisions initiates violent sloshing inside partially filled liquid tanks on board. Sloshing affects the collision dynamics and reduces the amount of energy available for structural deformations. An understanding of this interaction phenomen...

One of the main vibration problems of aerospace vehicles with liquid fuel propulsion system is fuel sloshing. This phenomenon is a low frequency vibrational challenge which can affect the motion of the vehicle and degrade the stability of the main control system. In this regards, the motion of the liquid will be very critical when the frequency of the sloshing is very close to the frequencies o...

The coalescence of magnetic islands in the low-resistivity eta, Hall-MHD regime is studied. The interaction between the ion inertial length d(i) and the dynamically evolving current sheet scale length deltaJ is established. Initially, d(i) << deltaJ. If eta is such that deltaJ dynamically thins down to d(i) prior to the well-known sloshing phenomena, then sloshing is avoided. This results in et...
