چکیده

dynamic behavior of ground supported cylindrical storage tanks (cst) is of crucial importance because of its applications in industrial complexes. seismic behavior of tanks is greatly affected by the height to diameter ratio, fluid height and fluid type. five csts with different height to diameter ratios, three csts with the same height and diameters but various fluid heights and one cst with two different fluid types are selected to determine the effect of height to diameter ratio, fluid heights, and fluid type on the seismic behavior of the tanks respectively. static, modal, response spectrum, and time history analyses are used in this study for the selected csts using ansys finite element software. in the time history analysis method, the tabas, kobe and cape mendocino earthquake records have been utilized on the first five csts to ascertain the effect of height to diameter ratio and the tabas earthquake record is used for the rest of csts. results show that an increase in fluid height lead to a corresponding increase in the base shear. based on observations, 100 percent increase in the diameter showed 63 percent increase in sloshing under the response spectrum and 70 percent under time history analyses. based on static and response spectrum analyses, the highest values of displacements are obtained at the lowest part of the tanks, while in time history analysis, the highest is obtained at the top of the tanks. all analyses showed that the maximum stress occurred at the height of 1 to 2 meter from the bottom of the tanks.

Study on Fundamental Frequencies of Cylindrical Storage Tanks Obtained from Codes and Finite Element Method

In the case of study on the seismic behavior of tanks, one of the most important subjects is selection of convective and impulsive frequencies for storage tanks. These two frequencies are defined by Housner. The major utility of these frequencies is for Rayleigh damping which is a must for time history analysis. API 650, EUROCODE 8 have suggested some analytical solutions for finding convective...

buckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....

Fluid damping of cylindrical liquid storage tanks

A method is proposed in order to calculate the damping effects of viscous fluids in liquid storage tanks subjected to earthquakes. The potential equation of an ideal fluid can satisfy only the boundary conditions normal to the surface of the liquid. To satisfy also the tangential interaction conditions between liquid and tank wall and tank bottom, the potential flow is superimposed by a one-dim...
