Rijitleştirme Levhalı Sıvı Depolama Tankının Yapısal Davranışının Dalga Yükü Altında İncelenmesi

Abstract

Storage structures, which are frequently found in the industrial areas, have variable; geometry, carrier system and building material according to their purpose of use. In liquid storage structures, cylinder designed steel silo constructions are quite common. A structure built for liquid storage is designed according to the stored mass, hydrostatic pressure and the wave load within the silo wall. In this case, the silo carrier system needs to operate sufficiently rigid under the horizontal and vertical stresses. Also, under the wave forces, it is desirable from walls, to be able to carry the wave load that varies depending on the mechanical properties of the liquid stored inside. In the literature; When the silo type structures that are collapsed under dynamic excitation effects are examined; it was emphasized that the behavior of stored material under the dynamic excitation; has affected, rigidity and period of the structure. This situation in the structure period and behavior has been shown to cause the structure to fail. In this study, behavior of a liquid storage tank designed with 12.5m diameter and 12m height is investigated under wave loads. Vertical and horizontal stiffening plates are used to dampen the stress and deformation effects that may occur on the structure wall due to wave load. The designed structure is analyzed using Ansys WB program. Based on the results of the analysis, the contribution of the stiffening plates to the behavior is examined. It has been seen that use of plates together has given better results.
