The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers who work in the fields related to modeling, simulation or analysis of the sloshing type problems by using mathematical approaches (analytical or numerical) and discuss recent advances.
Description:
The liquid sloshing problem, which may simply be referred as the
oscillatory movements of a liquid-state material inside a partially
filled container, constitutes a broad class of problems of great
practical importance with regard to the safety of transportation systems
such as liquid cargo in ocean-going vessels or liquid storage systems
such as water reservoir of a dam.
The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers who work in
the fields related to modeling, simulation or analysis of the sloshing
type problems by using mathematical (analytical/semi-analytical or
numerical) approaches and discuss recent advances.
