Numerical Study of Rectangular Tank with Sloshing Fluid and Simulation of the Model Using a Machine Learning Method

Abstract

This paper presents a fluid sloshing model using the artificial neural network method (ANN). Determining the fluid sloshing model in the tank is a challenging task due to its nonlinearity and complexity of behavior to its environmental and operational conditions. Due to the problems of laboratory modeling, the use of numerical modeling to analyze this phenomenon can be justified. In this paper, first, the fluid sloshing in the tank is simulated by the smooth particle hydrodynamics method (SPH). The input-output data for training the artificial neural network is based on the obtained results. Finally, the maximum force due to the fluid sloshing is obtained by changing different parameters.
