The concept originally appeared in XIX century but generalized in 2000-2013 by
the author together with Prof. Odd M. Faltinsen
Liquid Sloshing Dynamics
is treated as a conservative mechanical system with infinite degrees of freedom
so that
the Lagrange formalism can adopt the generalized coordinates and velocities
responsible for the global liquid modes instead of working with typically-
accepted hydrodynamic characteristics (velocity field, pressure, etc.)

Historical aspects & Ideas: Linear & Nonlinear

IDEAS come from aircraft and spacecraft applications:
when the task consists of describing
the coupled dynamics of
a body with cavities filled by a liquid
N.E. J oukowski (1885) paper
`On the motion of a rigid body with cavities
filled by a homogeneous fluid

J oukowski theorem for a completely filled tank:
`The rigid body-ideal irrotational incompressible fluid mechanical
system can modelled as a rigid body with a specifically-modified inertia
tensor

Considering the fluid as frozen is a wrong way (boiled and fresh
eggs!!!).
The velocity field is described by the so-called Stokes-J oukowski
potentials.

Having known the time-independent Stokes-
Joukowski potentials makes it possible to find the
fluid flow for any time instant so that
the velocity field
the pressure,
the resulting hydrodynamic force and moments,
etc.
are explicit functions of the six input generalized
coordinates

What about liquid sloshing (free surface)?

J oukowski solution

As long as we know
the time-independent Stokes-J oukowski potentials
(Neumann problem in the unperturbed liquid domain)
the natural sloshing modes (the spectral boundary problem
in the unperturbed liquid domain)
then
the free-surface elevations
the hydrodynamic forces and moments (provided by the
corresponding Lukovsky formulas)
are functions of the input and the generalized coordinates
where the latters are the solution of the linear oscillator
problem:

and the hydrodynamic coefficients are integrals over

so how to use the Euler-Lagrange equation, e.g., for
Steady-state and transient response?
Wave elevations? Forces and moments? Coupling?
Realistic clean tanks?
Dissipation? Internal structures effect?

What should be solved?
Choosing the leading and negligible
generalized coordinates
Modifying the modal equation due to
damping, specific phenomena and internal
structures

16
When forcing the lowest natural sloshing frequency:
Finite liquid depth (liquid depth/tank length>0.2)
A small forcing magnitude Moiseevs asymptotics
Increasing forcing magnitude, or the critical depth
ratio (h/l=0.3368) secondary resonances and
adaptive asymptotics
Intermediate and small depths (liquid depth/tank
length <0.2)
Multiple secondary resonance
Boussinesq ordering
Internal structures (e.g., bulkheads)
Small forcing amplitude quasilinear theory
Increasing forcing amplitude secondary resonance

Nonlinearity implies an energy transfer from the lowest,
primary excited, to a set of higher modes. The latter
modes can be resonantly excited due to the so-called
secondary resonances.
What does it mean in terms of leading
generalized coordinates?

Agreement is almost ideal when no wave breaking occurs and,
therefore, damping does not matter.
Multi-peak response curves and damping are important when
dealing with secondary resonances.

29
Associated damping becomes important with
Decreasing depth and increasing forcing amplitude
Roof impact
Internal structures
Normally, viscous boundary layer effect is less
important

Damping terms can be incorporated into the modal
equations following the strategy in Chapter 6 of
Sloshing book.

Modal equations with nine degrees of freedom

34
For harmonic forcing, one can find analytically
approximate steady-state solutions and study their stability
(also analytically!!!). This makes it possible to classify the
steady-state regimes and establish the frequency ranges
where the regimes exist and stable.

One can distinguish:

Swirling always causes secondary resonances and
local phenomena when forcing amplitude increases,
but classification remains correct. Again, why?
This is explained by the concept of the weak chaos:
Here, a clearly steady-state by a subset of [leading]
generalized coordinates and irregular motions by other
[infinite set] higher-order coordinates caused by higher
resonances.

The weak chaos concept for low-dimensional Hamiltonian
(conservative) systems (see, e.g. Henning et al. (2013),
Physica D, 253):

ORDER WEAK CHAOS CHAOS
Lyapunov exponent: <0 >0, but small >0, finite
in domains of weak chaos trajectories (by higher-order generalized
coordinates) slowly diffuse into thin chaotic layers and wander through a
complicated network of higher order resonances

For our almost-conservative mechanical system with an infinite set of
generalized coordinates (g.c.), this implies:

ORDER WEAK CHAOS CHAOS
stable by all g.c. stable by dominant g.c., unstable by all g.c.
but chaos in higher-order g.c.
unless a strong damping occurs
For 3D sloshing, the weak chaos is the reality well modelled by
the multimodal method
