Abstract: The present study delves into the effect of nonlinearity on the dynamic behavior of liquid filled rectangular tanks. A velocity potential based 2D Galerkin FEM model has been developed for the simulation. Mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian-material –node time-marching scheme is used for numerical solution at every time step. Fourth-order Runge-Kutta scheme is used for the time-stepping integration of free surface boundary conditions in a Lagrangian manner in order to track the free surface. It is observed that although nonlinearity has no significant effect in the pressure distribution on the tank wall. However nonlinearity has significant bearing on base shear, base moment and sloshing amplitude.
