%X Sloshing is a complex nonlinear dynamic phenomenon which has a significant influence on the stability of structure¨Cfluid systems. In this study, the dynamic equation of sloshing based on Hamilton principle is established and linearized into a state space equation. Considering the uncertainty of the system, a robust H infinite guaranteed cost control method is proposed to mitigate the response of fluid wave height to horizontal acceleration of the tank body. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the closed-loop performance of the nonlinear dynamic modeling and linear optimal control method
