The Action of the Top Tank as TLD in High-Rise Steel Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

A tank with large capacity and high position results in a negative impact on structural seismic resistance usually, but these tanks can be modified to act as tuned liquid dampers (TLD). A high-rise steel structure with 14 stories with this kind of tank is analyzed in this paper to introduce the action about the tank-TLD. A finite element fluid-structure interaction model is established for ABAQUS software and the effects of different parameters, and the optimal parameters about the tank-TLD are studied.
