Abstract: Second mode sloshing motion induces the vertical outofplane deformation of deck plate in single deck floating roof (FR) cylindrical storage tanks. This vertical deformation tends to shrink the deck plate in horizontal ...

Abstract: Sloshing response of a cylindrical liquid storage tank with the double deck type floating roof (DDFR) subjected to seismic excitation is considered in this paper. The aim of the paper is to clarify the significant parameters ...

Abstract: One of the most common types of fluid storage tanks are rectangular concrete tanks placed on the ground. Ensuring the seismic performance of these tanks is crucial as, besides damage and losses during a crisis, they can ...

Abstract: Proper evaluation of forces exerted on a solid boundary by liquid sloshing is difficult. If the free board in a liquid storage tank is insufficient, the sloshing waves caused by seismic excitation will collide with the ...
