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...

We consider a tank containing a fluid. The tank is subjected to directly controlled translations and rotations. The fluid motion is described by linearized wave equations under shallow water approximations. For irrotational flows, a new variational formulation of Saint-Venant equations is proposed. This provides a simple method to establish the equations when the tank is moving. Several control...

Because of colossal need by the general population, water must be put away and provided their necessities. Water request isn't steady for duration day. It changes hour to hour. To supply measure water, we store water. So, full fill open need, tank should developed. Limit storehouses overhead tanks are used liquid oil, oil-based merchandise relative liquids. The power assessment or is about comp...

In this work it is presented a fault tolerant control application using neural networks-based compensation schemes. The design consists of supervising the process possible faults using an observer that allows determining the present fault and its direction and then it will be used a classification neural network which will activate the appropriate controller according to the identified fault ty...

BACKGROUND Tank rainwater is a source of untreated drinking water in Australia and elsewhere. The aim of this study was to determine whether the risk of gastroenteritis among children who drank tank rainwater differed from that of children who drank treated public mains water. METHODS A cohort study of 1,016 4- to 6-year old children who drank rainwater or treated mains water in rural South A...

Although cases of community-acquired Legionnaires' disease have been epidemiologically linked to residential water supplies, the risk of acquiring Legionnaires' disease from exposure to Legionella pneumophila in residential water systems is uncertain. The residential water supplies of 218 members of the American Legion in six different geographical areas in Pittsburgh were cultured for L. pneum...
