near-resonant modes of motion

Resonant modes of the motion of a cylindrical reservoir on a movable pendulum suspension with a free-surface liquid

The article deals with an investigation of the system of "reservoir -- liquid with a free surface", when the reservoir is fixed on pendulum suspension, which suspension point performs a given motion. The system behavior is studied for the below-resonant, near-resonant and above-resonant modes. The description of the system behavior is done based on a nonlinear model of motion, which takes into account the combined character of motion of the system components. The numerical modeling shows that general regularities of the system behavior coincide qualitatively with known experiments.
