In the engineering field, sloshing in rolling vessel is a hot issue because of the connection with ship stability problem. The sloshing phenomena also can be utilized in the field of structure or facility vibration damper. This paper explores the possibility which sloshing of multi-particles can be used to dissipate energy in a rolling container. This energy dissipation can be utilized to the application of rotating damper. Some of the parameters expected to dissipates energy, such as vessel size, particle size, mass fraction and ramp height, have been experimentally and theoretically studied.
