Asymptotics of sloshing eigenvalues for a triangular prism

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider the three-dimensional sloshing problem on a triangular prism whose angles with the sloshing surface are of the form fracpi2q, where q is an integer. We are interested in finding a two-term asymptotic expansion of the eigenvalue counting function. When both angles are fracpi4, we compute the exact value of the second term. As for the general case, we conjecture an asymptotic expansion by constructing quasimodes for the problem and computing the counting function of the related quasi-eigenvalues. These quasimodes come from solutions of the sloping beach problem and correspond to two kinds of waves, edge waves and surface waves. We show that the quasi-eigenvalues are exponentially close to real eigenvalues of the sloshing problem. The asymptotic expansion of their counting function is closely related to a lattice counting problem inside a perturbed ellipse where the perturbation is in a sense random. The contribution of the angles can then be detected through that perturbation.
