Numerical Analysis of the Seismic Response of Underground Steel Storage Tanks
The seismic behaviour of underground structures is generally satisfactory compared to the above-ground ones. However, despite of the buried structure confinement, in recent strong seismic events some underground structure as tunnels, pipelines and tanks suffered high damage; for this reason, a strong effort is focused to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of these structure and to give codes in...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Seismic Response Analysis of Cylindrical Liquid Storage Tanks
Japan is in a seismically active area and experiences many damaging earthquakes with loss of life. In 1995, the Hyogoken-Nanbu earthquake caused major destruction in Kobe City and in 2011 the Great Eastern Japan earthquake and tsunami caused major destruction in the Pacific coast areas of northeastern Japan. Additionally, recent relatively less destructive earthquakes include the 2003 Tokachi-O...
متن کاملImproving seismic performance of elevated cylindrical water storage tanks using nonlinear isolators incorporating liquid–structure interaction
Pervasive construction of elevated liquid tanks as the most important sources for urban hygienic water, and their failure under earthquake, highlighs the necessity for research toward new passive control devices. Design and use of base-isolation systems for elevated liquid tanks is propounded as a novel seismic engineering technology. To date, no special examination has been discussed in relati...
متن کاملIntroduction of Air Cushion to Reduce Seismic Demand in Cylindrical Water Storage Tanks
Water storage tanks not designed explicitly for seismic loading could require retrofit. One of the common ways of retrofit include some structural change in the lateral load resisting system that could be expensive and requires the tank to be out of service for relatively long time. This paper introduces a novel method to reduce seismic demand on tank’s wall without structural intervention. Thi...
متن کاملEvaluation of Soil-Structure Interaction on the Seismic Response of Liquid Storage Tanks under Earthquake Ground Motions
Soil-structure interaction (SSI) could affect the seismic response of structures. Since liquid storage tanks are vital structures and must continue their operation under severe earthquakes, their seismic behavior should be studied. Accordingly, the seismic response of two types of steel liquid storage tanks (namely, broad and slender, with aspect ratios of height to radius equal to 0.6 and 1.85...
