Potential liquefaction of some cargoes (Nickel ore, iron ore, ...) is a major risk for the maritime industry. The difficulties to simulate accurately the behaviour of these materials as well as their interaction with a bulk carrier model leaded us to use a non-Newtonian highly viscous fluid to model a liquefied ore. An experimental approach is presented in this paper. Roll responses of a ship model as well as details on the internal free surface behaviours are investigated for different loading conditions: solid cargo, fresh water and viscous fluids.

A compact cluster of 3 to 6 rigid equal spheres is falling under gravity in a viscous liquid. The small effects of intertia on a horizontal regular polygonal configuration are that the polygon expands as it falls and small perturbations from this configuration die out, although when the polygon is large enough it becomes weakly unstable. This is an extension of the analysis of Hocking (1964, which was applied to the experiments of Jayaweera, Mason & Slack (1964).

When a hollow circular cylinder with its axis horizontal is partially filled with water and rotated rapidly about its axis, an almost rigid-body motion results with an interior free surface. The emotion is analysed assuming small perturbations to a rigid rotation, and a criterion is found for the stability of the motion. This is confirmed experimentally under varying conditions of water depth and angular velocity of the cylinder. The modes of oscillation (centrifugal waves) of the free surface are examined and a frequency equation deduced. Two particular modes are considered in detail, and satisfactory agreement is found with the frequencies observed.
