Experiments on sloshing mitigation using tuned oscillating baffles
We experimentally confirm the efficacy of submerged oscillating baffles for sloshing mitigation in a partially filled open container of water. As with the more typical applications of tuned mass dampers, when the natural frequency of the baffle is close to that of the first sloshing mode, the main resonance peak is split into two peaks of lower amplitude. The reduction in resonant sloshing amplitude is superior to that of a fixed baffle.
