Book Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks

Download or read book Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks written by Gian Michele Calvi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks A detailed view on the effects of seismic activity on tank structures As the use of above-ground and underground storage tanks (ASTs and USTs) continues to grow—with approximately 545,000 in the USA alone—the greatest threat to ASTs and USTs is earthquakes, causing the contamination of groundwater, a vital source of drinking water throughout the world. These tanks suffer a great deal of strain during an earthquake, as a complicated pattern of stress affects them, such that poorly designed tanks have leaked, buckled, or even collapsed during seismic events. Furthermore, in oil and gas industrial plants, the risk of damage is even more critical due to the effects of explosion, collapse, and air or soil contamination by chemical fluid spillages. Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks provides the first in-depth discussion of the principles and applications of shell structure design and earthquake engineering analyses focused on tank structures, and it explains how these methodologies can help prevent the destruction of ASTs and USTs during earthquakes. Providing a thorough examination of the design, analysis, and performance of steel, reinforced concrete, and precast tanks, this book takes a look at tanks that are above-ground, underground, or elevated, anchored and unanchored, and rigid or flexible, and evaluates the efficacy of each method during times of seismic shaking—and it does so without getting bogged down in impenetrable mathematics and theory. Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks readers will also find: A global approach to the best analytical and practical solutions available in each region: discussion of the latest US codes and standards from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ACSE 7), the American Concrete Institute (ACI 350,3, 371.R), the American Water Works Association (AWWA D100, D110, D115), and the American Petroleum Institute (API 650) an overview of the European codes and standards, including Eurocode 8-4 and CEN-EN 14015 Hundreds of step-by-step equations, accompanied by illustrations Photographs illustrating real-world damage to tanks caused by seismic events Perfect for practising structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, civil engineers, and engineers of all kinds who are responsible for the design, analysis, and performance of tanks and their foundations—as well as students studying engineering—Seismic Design and Analysis of Tanks is a landmark text, the first work of its kind to deal with the seismic engineering performance of all types of storage tanks.

Book Buckling of Broad  Anchored  Cylindrical Liquid storage Tanks Subjected to Horizontal Ground Motion

Download or read book Buckling of Broad Anchored Cylindrical Liquid storage Tanks Subjected to Horizontal Ground Motion written by Tony Boutros and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the seismic response of broad, anchored, cylindrical liquid-storage tanks has large practical significance because these structures are used in many critical engineering applications (petroleum industries, nuclear power stations, municipal water supply systems, wine industries ...). The performance of such tanks during recent earthquakes and in experiments has indicated that the existing codes for designing tanks are in need of improvement. Due to the complexity of the dynamic analysis, several researchers have used a static approach to predict the dynamic buckling load. It has been demonstrated that such a static analysis yields useful information. On the basis of this finding, an approximate analytical method is developed to study the buckling of broad, anchored, cylindrical liquid-storage tanks subjected to horizontal ground motion. The solution is based on the linearized Donnell's shell stability equations and Galerkin's approach. The smallest buckling load (or the critical load factor) is calculated using the inverse iteration method. Theoretical results are then determined for two cases of broad tanks presented as examples. The validity of the findings of the present work is checked through comparison with results obtained by the numerical Finite Element Method (FEM).

Book Seismic Analysis of Liquid filled Tanks with an Eccentric Core Barrel

Download or read book Seismic Analysis of Liquid filled Tanks with an Eccentric Core Barrel written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seismic analysis of fluid-coupled concentric cylindrical shells is reviewed. A coupled fluid-structure finite element method which considers the sloshing effect is then developed for the seismic analysis of liquid-filled systems with internal components. The theoretical development of the mixed finite element formulation is also included. The resulting fluid-structure interaction algorithm has been integrated into the computer code FLUSTR II and the seismic analysis of liquid-filled tanks with an eccentric core barrel is performed. Numerical results show the method yields accurate solutions with large increases in efficiency.
