Abstract

Nonlinear free oscillations of the interface of a concentric frictionless immiscible liquid system in a spherical container are investigated in a zero-gravity environment. The natural frequencies are determined for the axisymmetric and asymmetric oscillations of the interfacial surface with the diameter ratio and density ratio as parameters. It was found that for small outer- to inner liquid density ratio the oscillations exhibit softening, while for large density ratios it renders hardening oscillation. The asymmetric oscillations exhibit in the softening range softer and in the hardening range harder liquid oscillations. For a liquid layer around a rigid center sphere the oscillations of the free liquid surface yields softening behavior, where for thinner layers the softening effect is more pronounced.
