The Effects of Earthquake on the Cylindrical Tanks

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper deals with a problem of earthquake of the cylindrical tank. During the seismic event, the load acts in one direction only, i.e. in the direction of earthquake. This load imposes a non-symmetrical loading of a structure. At seismic load of structure of cylindrical tank was used accelerogram. In final part of the paper some crucial results are presented both in a graphical and numerical way.
