Modelling of Uplifting Mechanism in Unanchored Liquid Storage Tanks Subjected To Seismic Loading


Abstract eng:
The present paper outlines research conducted within the INDUSE research project, and focuses on the seismic response of unanchored (self-anchored) liquid storage tanks. Unanchored tanks, when subjected to strong seismic loading, may exhibit uplifting of their bottom plate, which has significant effects on the dynamic behavior and strength of the tank. Those effects mainly concern: •
