This research project will develop the theory and application of the            primary and secondary bifurcation of nonlinear oscillations of water            waves in enclosed rectangular basins using perturbation methods,                bifurcation theory, and other advanced mathematical techniques.  The            physical motivation is the "sloshing" problem, a phenomena of                   tremendous practical importance in liquid transport in trucks, rail             cars, LNG &amp; oil sea tankers, satellites, etc.  The results indicate             that explanation for the anomalous branches of solutions in the water           wave problem are generic and may occur in many physical systems under           particular symmetry conditions.
