A paper by Matt Turner, Tom Bridges and Hamid Alemi Ardakani titled “Dynamic coupling in Cooker’s sloshing experiment with baffles” has appeared in Physics of Fluids. In the paper the authors demonstrate that higher order resonances can occur in a simple coupled fluid-vessel sloshing set-up if impermeable baffles are inserted to split the vessel into multiple […]
