Liquid storage tanks (LSTs) have become indispensable to civil engineering infrastructure.
LSTs are used not only for storing harmless fluids but also explosive, toxic, and hazardous …

In order to reduce the interstory drift ratio and floor acceleration of coupled wall structure, a
new type of steel and viscous damping composite coupling beam (SVDCCB) is developed …

In this paper, the numerical studies on the semi-elliptical crack behavior in different locations
of welded zones in the supporting structure of a spherical pressure vessel under an …

In this paper, the seismic responses of column supported tanks under horizontal earthquake
are obtained by finite element method. Two types of structures are discussed including the …

Wave propagation analysis of heterogeneous unbounded media employing domain
discretization methods necessitates truncation of the finite computational domain at its …

The finite element method is adopted to obtain the seismic responses of column supported
tank including the anchored one and the resilient one by ANSYS. The dynamic behaviors …

The slender structure is prone to be affected by horizontal force; therefore, the seismic
performance needs to be considered carefully. Meanwhile, due to the low cost and good …

The seismic responses of elevated tanks considering liquid-structure interaction are
presented under horizontal earthquake. The scaled model tank is fabricated to study the …

Aim of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness of the seesaw system in mitigating the
seismic response of elevated steel tanks for water storage. This is accomplished by …

Liquid storage tanks are lifeline structures and strategically very important. Heavy damages
or even collapse of these facilities subjected to strong earthquakes may cause disastrous …
