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.

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).

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dynamic response of liquid-storage tanks subjected to harmonic excitations and earthquake ground motions has been studied. A rigid tank of negligible mass, rigidly supported at the base having a diameter of 50 ft. and fluid height of 20.4 ft. was used in the computer analysis. The liquid is assumed to have a density of 1.5 g/ml. Viscosity values, [mu] = 60, 200, 100, and 10,000 cP, were used in the numerical analyses to study the effects of viscosity on sloshing wave height, impulsive and convective pressure on the tank wall, base shear and base moments. Harmonic excitations as well as earthquake ground motions were used as input motions. The harmonic excitations used in the analyses covers a wide range of frequencies, including both the resonant and non-resonant frequencies. Two earthquake motions were used. One matches the Newmark-Hall median response spectrum and is anchored at 0.24 g for a rock site with a damping of 2% and a time duration of 10 s. The other is the 1978 Tabas earthquake which had a peak ZPA of 0.81 g and a time duration of 29 s. A small tank, about 1/15 the size of the typical waste storage tank, was used in the harmonic excitation study to investigate the effect of viscosity on the response of liquid-storage tanks and how the viscosity effect is affected by the size of the storage tank. The results of this study show that for the typical waste storage tank subjected to earthquake motions, the effect of viscosity on sloshing wave height and impulsive and convective pressures is very small and can be neglected. For viscosity effect to become noticeable in the response of the typical waste storage tank, the waste viscosity must be greater than 10,000 cP. This value is far greater than the estimated viscosity value of the high level wastes, which may range from 60 to 200 cP for some tanks.
