Static and Dynamic Analysis of Storage Tanks Considering Soil-Structure Interaction
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Storage tanks are one of the important and vital structures at times of earthquake and specially after the earthquake. For this reason, seismic behaviour of storage tanks has attracted attention of many researchers. But thesoil surroundingthe tank affects behaviour of structure in seismic analysis of storage tanks. For this reason, it is necessary to for designers of storage tanks to understand interaction of soil and structure in seismic analysis of tanks. In this paper, first, static and dynamic analysis of the storage tanks has been reviewedwith considering interaction of soil and structure. Then, effect of soil type on seismic behaviour of structure has been studied and the results of static and dynamic analysis results have been compared. For this reason, three kinds of soil with different parameters (soft, middle and hard soil) have been used. In the present paper, three-dimensional cubic storage tanks modelled using Abaqus software and energy absorbentboundaries method has been used to model waves propagation inboundaries.
