The problem of liquid sloshing is widespread in the field of naval architecture and ocean engineering. During the sloshing process, the liquid will produce a large slamming force on the bulkhead. At the same time, the coupled sloshing of the liquid in tank and the hull will also affect the floating state and stability of the hull, and even induce safety accidents. The tank sloshing simultaneous with baffles and under rolling excitation is particularly focused in this paper, which is rarely concerned preciously. Based on the theory of fluid dynamics, the program of tank sloshing under large-amplitude rolling conditions by the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method is compiled, and the accuracy of the numerical model is validated through existing experimental results. Furthermore, the slamming pressure and the wetted height of the tank wall are studied for the cases of different excitation amplitudes and excitation frequencies. Then, the dynamic response characteristics of the sloshing tank with vertical and horizontal baffles are studied, and the effects of different baffle lengths are analyzed. The result shows that under rolling excitation the vertical baffle longer than the water depth can mitigate sloshing to some extent, but the vertical baffle whose length is less than the water depth and the horizontal baffles cannot play a role in mitigating the sloshing.
When the bank of a reservoir slope slides along a weak structural plane at a high speed, “landslide slamming” will occur in the nearby water. The formation of landslide‐induced waves is a serious threat to the safety of wharfs, shore marks, buildings in the water, and vessels navigating in reservoir areas. To ensure the safety of navigating ships, this study proposes a landslide‐induced wave water ship navigation safety risk response technology. The propagation characteristics of landslide‐induced waves are analysed based on a physical model experiment, and the characteristics of a ship′s motion response and mooring cable tensions are studied under conditions of bow and stern mooring and multipoint mooring. The influences of the landslide‐induced wave direction and ship navigation position on the ship rolling motion characteristics are discussed. The results of this study can further improve the navigation safety of ships in landslide‐induced wave waters.
The slope of a reservoir area is unstable and can be destroyed by natural disasters, such as strong earthquakes and rainstorms. Landslide bodies that enter the water and generate landslide surges pose serious safety risks to terminals, ships, and hydraulic structures in a reservoir area. After analyzing landslide data in a reservoir area, a series of comparative tests was carried out to investigate the propagation characteristics of landslide-induced tsunamis in channel reservoirs, and the changes in water level values at various monitoring points in the river channel after the landslides entered the water were explored. The effects of landslide width and thickness on the characteristics of landslide-induced tsunamis were analyzed. The main target was a fixed-velocity ship in landslide-swelling water. The complex nonlinear motion characteristics of the ship on the water were studied to determine the safe navigation range.
