STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF THE SINGLE AND GROUP FUEL TANKS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SEISMIC LOADS IN BASRA GOVERNORATE
In this paper, the finite element ANSYS software was used to study the seismic behavior ofcylindrical fuel storage tanks in west of Basra governorate. Single and group tanks are analyzedunder free vibration (empty and full tanks) and under the El-Centro earthquake component foran impulsive case and full tank with fuel. The interaction between tanks wall and internal fuelwas considered. The study includes Hoop forces, bending moment, shear force, horizontaldisplacement and hydrodynamic pressure. Also, the reflection point for bending moment andshear force for tank wall is estimated.This study shows that the response of a single tank is larger than group tanks, and the hoopforce decreases about (10-17) %, while the pressure and displacement decrease about (5-10) %,and the shear force and bending moment are decreased about (37-42) %. The increase in tankdiameter leads to increase the response of tank. The Time has come to the understanding thatthe fixed support of tank is more stable than hinge support.HTTP://DX.DOI.ORG/10.30572/2018/KJE/100404
