Two-dimensional sloshing analysis by Lagrangian finite element method. (English) Zbl 0711.76008

Summary: Two dimensional sloshing analysis has been carried out by the Lagrangian finite element method. For the integration in time, the velocity correction method with the same interpolation functions for velocity and pressure is successfully used. The Lagrangian treatment to pursue the free surface position is presented. The comparison with the experiments shows extremely good agreement. It is shown that the large amplitude sloshing waves in a container can be analyzed by the present method.
