Abstract
The term sloshing means any motion of a liquid inside a partially filled container and therefore including a free surface. Usually the sloshing is induced by the motion of the container, which often gets again influenced by the sloshing itself (e.g. damping). Due to the different physics involved, it is an unsteady, highly non-linear phenomenon and difficult to describe in full detail.
