Oscillations in a continuously stratified fluid in a moving vessel, and their control (Q1117118)

Classical models of a heavy ideal fluid are used to study internal wave motions of a stable stratified fluid in a moving vessel, and methods of controlling these oscillations. The case of exponential stratification, which differs in a number of essential features from the case of discrete stratification studied earier by the first author [e.g. Mech. Solids 18, 34-41 (1983); translation from Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Mekh. Tverd. Tela 18, 39-46 (1983)], is considered.
