In this study, the sloshing characteristics in a cylindrical tank on an oscillation table are investigated. Firstly, laboratory experiments were conducted under various hydraulic conditions and sloshing characteristics were examined. To simulate the flow fields in experiments, the depth averaged flow model in generalized curvilinear moving coordinate system was used, in which a pressure distribution was assumed to be hydrostatic, and linear solution was derived. The sloshing characteristics obtained from the linear solution were verified by comparing with the experimental results. Good agreement between the linear solution and measurements was observed in case that the water surface profiles were under the first mode.
