Liquid storage tanks are widely used in the industry and can contain not only harmless substances but also various ones that can be explosive and toxic or pollutant, thus implying …
Motivated by the seismic response of unanchored liquid storage tanks, their uplift mechanism under strong lateral loading is examined. Using three-dimensional finite …
This research experimentally addresses the seismic response of a cylindrical liquid storage tank in terms of six factors, ie, acceleration, displacement, hoop and axial stresses in the …
