Title: Elementary Cases of Motion of a Rigid Body Containing a Fluid
Abstract: The expression “elementary cases of motion of a rigid body with fluid-filled cavities” is here used to refer to instances in which the motion of the fluid in the cavity can be described completely by a finite number of variables. Obviously this is only possible when the fluid fills the entire cavity and thus has no free surface. If the motion of the fluid is potential or homogeneous turbulent motion (quasi-solid), then the motion of the system is described by ordinary differential equations together with Laplace’s equation15,17. The study of the motion of the system in these cases is appreciably simplified.
