Abstract

The computation of the linear vibrations of structures partially filled with liquids is of prime importance in various industries such as aerospace, naval, civil and nuclear engineering. Here, a formulation is proposed for the modal analysis of incompressible liquids in elastic tanks taking into account sloshing, pressurization and elastogravity effects obtained through an adapted procedure of linearization. A corresponding finite element formulation is then presented.
