| Description | The static equilibrium shapes of the neoprene bladder have been established corresponding to various ullage and gravity configurations under specified boundary conditions. The hemispherical bladder is taken to be attached at the diametral plane of the sphere with zero relative slope. With these shapes, the spherical tank with bladder and mercury has been modeled as an assemblage of finite elements. The properties of these elements have then been calculated using a linear displacement field. The dynamic characteristics were obtained to be used to define a mechanical analog which will reproduce the sloshing phenomenon of the system. |
