Abstract
A novel numerical model is proposed to simulate liquid sloshing in a rectangular nutation damper (i.e. a tuned liquid damper) undergoing a coupled horizontal and rotational motion. Shallow water theory is used consistently to derive the governing equations of motion so that the model is applicable to large sloshing involving a hydraulic jump. It can also accommodate exposure of part of the damper’s floor to air by using a somewhat improved boundary shear approximation. A simple finite difference approach – the Lax scheme – is found to solve the equations of motion surprisingly well. Numerical predictions are checked against limited experimental data for a purely horizontal motion. Good agreement is generally observed. Furthermore, to demonstrate the model’s broader scope, the effect of a rotation is also considered in conjunction with a horizontal motion. The rotation is shown to significantly enhance the damper’s energy dissipation and, hence, its attenuation capability. For convenient practical application, an equivalent singledegree-of-freedom oscillator model is presented to characterize a nutation damper’s behavior for a coupled motion. The equivalent parameters of the model are determined so that the dissipated energy “best” fits a numerical counterpart. Their effect is investigated for different lengths, depths, and vibration levels of the damper. While the motivation of this investigation is to control the wind-induced galloping of overhead power lines, the proposed approach is applicable more generally to any excitation that induces low frequency vibrations.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
