Kinematic excitations provoke the motion and vibrations of the construction, which in turn considerably affects hydrodynamic loads generated on the walls of liquid cargo tanks. The issues of hydrodynamics also refer to the constructions fixed to the bottom, and thosehalf-immersed, fully immersed, and floating(drillingplatforms).Theymainlyconcernshiptanks and oceanotechnical tanks. The theoretical and numerical analysis for long an short tanks, fully or partially filledwithliquidhasbeenperformed.Thedeterminedhydrodynamicloads directly refer to the strength of the tank structure, which provides opportunities for determining the constructional strength of the entire hull. Extremely severe requirements are to be met by tanks used for carrying radioactive liquids, as an extremely high safety level is to be secured on all cargo carriers used in marine and land transport
