The structural integrity assessment of a partially filled tank pertaining to liquid sloshing upon sudden brake applications

A liquid cargo contained in a partially filled tank vehicle is known to experience liquid sloshing when subjected to a sudden braking application, which generates liquid forces applied on the tank wall affecting its structural integrity. A cylindrical partially filled tank is modelled in three di...
