Numerical Simulation of Nonlinear Sloshing in a 2D Vertically Moving Container

Abstract:

Nonlinear liquid sloshing problems in a vertically excited tank are numerically simulated by using a finite difference method. First, the irregular liquid domain is mapped onto a rectangular area by σ-transformation. Then, in the process of time iteration, the free surface is forecasted to estimate the boundary of the next time layer; and some nonlinear terms are approximated to derive linear equations. Free surface elevation and sloshing forces in the vertical sloshing process can be calculated precisely by this method.
