The liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanks are designed with four chamfers to reduce liquid sloshing for LNG carriers. This study investigates liquid sloshing mechanism in LNG tanks under different conditions through experiments and simulations. The repeatability test verified the good reproducibility of...
