Response of an empty cylindrical ground supported liquid storage tank to base excitation

Book ·
OSTI ID:6799305
;
The structure under consideration is an elastic cylindrical liquid storage tank attached to a rigid base slab. A finite-element analysis for the free vibrations of the empty tank permits determination of natural frequencies and associated mode shapes. The response of the empty tank to several simple deterministic base excitations as well as to artificial earthquake excitation is also determined by finite elements. Examples together with complete program listings are offered.
