Steady-State Resonant Sloshing in an Upright Cylindrical Container Performing a Circular Orbital Motion

Figure 1

A sketch of a rigid upright circular cylindrical container moving translatory in the horizontal plane along a circular trajectory of the nondimensional radius . The time-dependent liquid domain is confined by the free surface ( is the mean liquid surface) and is the wetted tank surface. Sloshing is considered in the tank-fixed coordinate system .
