Book Synopsis Soil Liquefaction during Recent Large-Scale Earthquakes by : Rolando P. Orense
Download or read book Soil Liquefaction during Recent Large-Scale Earthquakes written by Rolando P. Orense and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil Liquefaction during Recent Large-Scale Earthquakes contains selected papers presented at the New Zealand – Japan Workshop on Soil Liquefaction during Recent Large-Scale Earthquakes (Auckland, New Zealand, 2-3 December 2013). The 2010-2011 Canterbury earthquakes in New Zealand and the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake in Japan have caused significant damage to many residential houses due to varying degrees of soil liquefaction over a very wide extent of urban areas unseen in past destructive earthquakes. While soil liquefaction occurred in naturally-sedimented soil formations in Christchurch, most of the areas which liquefied in Tokyo Bay area were reclaimed soil and artificial fill deposits, thus providing researchers with a wide range of soil deposits to characterize soil and site response to large-scale earthquake shaking. Although these earthquakes in New Zealand and Japan caused extensive damage to life and property, they also serve as an opportunity to understand better the response of soil and building foundations to such large-scale earthquake shaking. With the wealth of information obtained in the aftermath of both earthquakes, information-sharing and knowledge-exchange are vital in arriving at liquefaction-proof urban areas in both countries. Data regarding the observed damage to residential houses as well as the lessons learnt are essential for the rebuilding efforts in the coming years and in mitigating buildings located in regions with high liquefaction potential. As part of the MBIE-JSPS collaborative research programme, the Geomechanics Group of the University of Auckland and the Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory of the University of Tokyo co-hosted the workshop to bring together researchers to review the findings and observations from recent large-scale earthquakes related to soil liquefaction and discuss possible measures to mitigate future damage. Soil Liquefaction during Recent Large-Scale Earthquakes will be of great interest to researchers, academics, industry practitioners and other professionals involved in Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering, Foundation Engineering, Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics.

Book Synopsis Seismic Response of Steel Tanks with Floating Roofs by : Stefano Caprinozzi
Download or read book Seismic Response of Steel Tanks with Floating Roofs written by Stefano Caprinozzi and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent major earthquakes revealed that liquid steel storage tanks are not immune to Natech accidents. The main issue is the potential leakage of hazardous material from the storage tank, which was also the subject of research presented in the thesis. Firstly, the capability of the tank simplified model is investigated by means of a non-code-conforming elevated tank that collapsed during the Kocaeli earthquake. Then three available seismic performance metrics are applied to the non-codeconforming elevated tank and its code-conforming variant. The risk-based performance metric is found comprehensive but computationally demanding, while the conventional performance metric is well established, but it may lead to biased decision-making. This finding implied the development of a computationally efficient simplified model of the unanchored liquid storage tank with a floating roof. The developed simplified model is validated by focusing on simulating liquid overtopping observed from the shaking table test results and refined finite element model. The capability of the simplified model is then demonstrated by means of the seismic fragility and risk analysis of the unanchored broad storage tank with a floating roof. The risk for liquid overtopping is observed high, while the risk for leakage due to tank wall failure is about one magnitude lower. The introduced methodology for seismic risk assessment also accounts for the annual variation of the tank's filling level. It is an efficient tool for loss-of-containment risk management if applied for determination of the risk-based tolerable tank's filling level of the storage tanks.

Book Synopsis Buckling of Broad, Anchored, Cylindrical Liquid-storage Tanks Subjected to Horizontal Ground Motion by : Tony Boutros
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).
