Corrugated membranes which are used as a means of liquid- and gas-sealing for a LNG storage tank and provide one of the most reliable primary barrier are the main component of in-ground membrane types for the assurance of high safety. It absorbs large thermal and mechanical deformations caused by ultra low temperature of LNG, -162 .deg.c, the cryogenic liquid and mechanical deformations caused by was carried out on crossing corrugation by commercial F.E code, ANSYS. This paper presents some of results in stress analysis of membranes performed for the purpose to investigate the strength of existing membrane for LNG storage tank designed by IHI,MHI, KHI and KGC expect for Technigaz eariy published. Based on these analytical studies,design criteria were estabilished and SHI original membranes having a high level of safety and fitting to larger capacities were developed.
