Abstract:This paper presents the experimental investigation of the threedimensional resonant sloshing in a square-base elastic tank. Two kinds of tanks are used in the model test, one is rigid and the other one is elastic. Due to the influence of the fluid-structure interaction, the lowest natural frequency of the liquid in the elastic tank slightly differs from that in the rigid tank of the same internal size. The model tanks are exited in 1-D harmonic longitudinal motion. Three relative fill levels (h/L) of 0.167, 0.333 and 0.500 are considered. The comparisons of the steady-state wave regimes between the elastic tank and the rigid tank are presented. Copyright ? 2016 by the International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers.
