Abstract

We construct a system of approximate nonlinear equations describing the small oscillations of an ideal incompressible liquid which partiallyfills a spherical cavity. These equations are obtained for the case when the cavity undergoes small harmonic translational displacements with a frequency close to the fundamental frequency of the liquid oscillations in the direction perpendicular to the gradient of the mass force field acting on the liquid.
