SLOSHING LOADS DUE TO RANDOM PITCH MOTION

The results of model test to determine sloshing loads due to random pitch motions are presented. A relatively long tank model is considered, and loads are measured on a deck transverse and a transverse bulkhead. A series of tests are performed with different pitch excitations, representing a large variety of short-term sea states. The short-term results are combined to give long-term distributions for sloshing loads.
