An Experimental Study of Slip Behavior of Large Scale Model Tank
説明
<jats:p>We recognized the importance of the seismic capability against earthquakes of the thermal power plant on the occurrence of the Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake in 1995. In this respect, seismic proving tests on the equipment of the thermal power plant had been planned and carried out. Vibration tests and FEM analysis were performed to demonstrate the seismic capability of the equipment. LNG tank was selected as one of the subjects. One of the remarkable nonlinear phenomena was lateral slip for an actual large tank. To investigate the slip behavior of the tank, vibration test of the large scale model tank and FEM analysis of actual tank were conducted. We estimated the slip behavior of the tank under severe seismic excitation. As the results, we confirmed that lateral slipping was mainly partial slip and total slip did not occur at severe seismic excitation.</jats:p>
