On the Prediction of Inner Pressure for the Tank in Rolling Motion

Journal of Korean navigation and port research, 2003
The inner liquid pressure of an airtight tank in rolling motions is investigated by means of forced oscillation tests, and the simple method to estimate the inner liquid pressure is proposed. A rectangular solid tank, which is fully filled with water, was used in the forced oscillation test of rolling motion.
