    We have been using it for hundreds of years in Turkey.

    This is, amusingly, exactly how I carry my travel mug without spilling it when I don't want to wash the lid. I just hold it by the top by three finger tips and let my hand more or less swing free as I walk. The same effect is much harder to get holding a coffee mug by the handle.

    So maybe that's why waiters can carry drinks on a tray balanced on an upturned palm. Their arm may be acting as a reverse pendulum so that the tray is not oscillating in harmony with the waiter's steps anymore. Very interesting.
    By the way if you walk backwards with the coffee cup it is also less likely to spill as your natural tendency to use you arm as as counterbalance to your steps doesn't happen so much in backwards mode. Of course on average you'll spill a lot more coffee
    this way as you trip over your furniture ;)

      When I was a teen, I took a small "paddle board" at the local pool, and somehow found a resonance to a wide but shallow warm-pool, deliberately. It was about 15 metres long and 5 wide, maybe half metre deep. I was astonished that after a few minutes of pushing the water back and forth, the whole pool sloshed (barely) centre-to-edges lengthwise. It wasn't busy there, and it kept doing it noticeably for almost a minute after I stopped. Hardly anyone noticed though. But I thought it was pretty cool at the time lol.

    After my Fluid Mechanics 1 frenzy I had run out of disposable cup covers and faced with dilemma of which cup style was the most spillproof I concluded a thin and tall cup would develop a lot less potential energy during a horizontal acceleration and hence less pressure on the side walls. Pressure can also be expressed as mm of water column so you if you actually do the math you get a direct reading of the wave height for each acceleration vector and cup style you choose. Though your equation shows a different property (and is a ton easier to solve), while my approach focuses on the sudden and violent horizontal accelerations transmitted from my car's cupholder.

    You could also add baffles to your cup. This effectively reduces the cup's radius into a collection of smaller radii. Then the frequency of your walking never adds enough energy to the system.
    Of course the best way to stop your cup from spilling is to add a lid.

      Yes. Theres a book called rendezvous with rama. Its about a giant ass spaceship. Its cylindrical. At the 'equator' theres a body of water inside.
      It was called the cylindrical sea. An annulus of water about a kilometer or so wide. One shore was about 100 meters above the water and the other side was 1000 meters above the surface. Fore and aft respectively.
      This was so that while the se was liquid, when the ship accelerated, the water would have some slosh room aftward.
      There were also antislosh baffle structures under the sea so that directional or rotational changes causing sloshing would be mitigated.
      Its pretty cool.

      Just cut two plastic sheets about the inside profile of your cup, and a slot halfway up in one, and halfway down in the other, then interleave them to make a cross (viewed edgewise) Place this in the cup and try your drink. They probably won't seal well enough to warrant making more slots or holes in them, but you can if you want.

    You don’t need some fancy tool to stop sloshing. You can easily do it with an intentional movement of your hand. Do a figure eight movement with your hand. When you get it right you will never spill again and it’s the easiest motion to learn for this.
