Finite Element Simulation of Dynamic Stability of Plane Free-Surface of a Liquid under Vertical Excitation

When partially filled liquid containers are excited vertically, the plane free-surface of the liquid can be stable or unstable depending on the amplitude and frequency of the external excitation. For some combinations of amplitude and frequency, the free-surface undergoes unbounded motion leading to...
