Dear all,
I am going to model a water storage tank for seismic analysis.
Since the sloshing of the water is important, I should model the water inside.
I would be so grateful if anyone could help me in this problem and tell me how to model the sloshing phenomena.
Best regards
The Abaqus example manual has a sloshing-water-in-tank example
Impact of a water-filled bottle, in my version it is example 2.3.2

In my example instead of Abaqus EOS of Mie-Gruneisen, I modelled water by quasi elastic medium with small Young's modulus and large Poisson's ratio (about 0.497). The value for Young's modulus was chosen to ensure very small shear modulus, but high volumetric module.
You can model this problem using CEL Method (ABAQUS):

Hassan Zafarmand,
For experiments with large deformations, eg, in this case, sloshing under seismic excitation, fluid can be modelled using Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, it has its advantages with respect to sloshing over the Lagrangian methods.
You can email the cae file and ill have a look at it for you.
