The seismic responses of elevated tanks considering liquid-structure interaction are presented under horizontal earthquake. The scaled model tank is fabricated to study the dynamic responses of anchored tank and newly designed uplift tank with replaced dampers. The natural frequencies for structural mode are obtained by modal analysis. The dynamic responses of tanks are completed by finite element method, which are compared with the results from experiment. The displacement parallel and perpendicular to the excitation direction are both gained as well as structural acceleration. The strain of tank walls and the axial strain of columns are also obtained afterwards. The seismic responses of liquid storage tank can be calculated by the finite element model effectively and the results match well with the one measured by experiment. The aim is to provide a new type of tank system with vertical constraint relaxed which leads to lower stress level. With the liquid volume increasing, the structural fundamental frequency has a great reduction and the one of uplift tank are even smaller. Compared with anchored tank, the displacement of uplift tank is magnified, the strain for tank walls and columns parallel to excitation direction reduces obviously, while the one perpendicular to earthquake direction increases a lot, but the values are still small. The stress level of new tank seems to be more even due to uplift effect. The new type of tank can realize recoverable function by replacing dampers after earthquake.

Experimental studies were conducted on the liquid sloshing characteristics in a spherical tank covered with a flexible membrane. A spherical acrylic tank with 145.2 mm in radius was used as a test tank, and it was half-filled with water. Silicon membranes with 0.2 mm thickness were used as a test membrane with plane or hemispherical types. The test tank was harmonically excited in a vertical direction by an electro-dynamic exciter. In this case, a parametric instability vibration comes up when the excitation frequency is twice the natural frequency. Parametric instability regions of natural modes were measured for three cases, i.e. liquid surface is free, covered with plane membrane and hemi-spherical membrane.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 위험물 운송용 탱크화차의 충돌안전설계 가이드라인 제안을 위해 해외 충돌안전 기준에 따른 국내 위험물 운송화차에 대하여 비선형 충돌해석을 하여 위험성을 평가하고, 구조적 취약부를 분석하는데 있다. 유럽의 EN 12663-2에서 규정하는 화차의 완충시험 및 북미 49CFR179에서 규정하는 탱크 펑크시험기준을 분석하였으며, 상용 유한요소 해석 솔버인 LS-DYNA를 이용하여 각각 기준에 따른 비선형 유한요소모델을 모델링하였다. EN 규격의 완충시험 해석결과 충돌속도 6 km/h 이하에서는 소성변형이 발생하지 않을 것으로 예측하였지만, 8 km/h 이상의 충돌속도에서 중앙연결기를 통한 하중 전달으로 차체의 센터실 후방 및 탱크 중앙 지지부에서 소성변형을 확인하였다. 북미 법규의 탱크 펑크시험 해석결과 국내 탱크화차는 두부 충돌모드에서 충돌차량의 운동에너지를 4 % 이상 흡수시 두부의 코너부에서 탱크 외벽의 파괴가 발생하였으며, 측면 충돌모드에서 운동에너지 30 % 이상 흡수시에 충격체가 접촉하는 탱크 외벽의 파괴가 발생하여 내부 적재물의 누출을 예상하였다. 국내 유류 운송용 탱크화차의 해외 충돌안전 기준의 만족을 위해서는 차체 구조보강 설계 및 탱크 방호설계 수준을 향상시킬 필요가 있다.

The aim of the shaking table experiment is to verify the isolation effect of a storage liquid tank with multiple friction pendulum bearings. A 1:20 scale model of a real storage liquid tank that is widely used in the petroleum industry was examined by the shaking table test to compare its anchored base and isolated base. The seismic response of the tank was assessed by employing the time history input. The base acceleration, wave height and tank wall stress were used to evaluate the isolation effect. Finally, the influences of the bearing performance that characterizes the isolated tank, such as the friction force and residual displacement, were discussed.

LNG 저장탱크의 외조 콘크리트는 방호벽 기능을 하는 프리스트레스 콘크리트 구조물이다. 콘크리트 구조물이 열화가 되어 안전성이 확보되지 않는 경우 구조물 붕괴 등의 위험성이 존재하게 된다. 정밀안전진단시 비파괴검사로 반발경도 및 초음파 속도 측정을 통해 구조물의 안전성과 직접적으로 관련되어 있는 콘크리트 압축강도를 추정식으로 예측할 수 있다. 그러나, LNG 저장탱크는 비파괴검사 데이터와 실제 압축강도에 대한 추정식이 부재하다. 이 연구는 LNG 저장탱크에 대해 보다 정확한 실제 강도를 측정하기 위해 Pilot LNG 저장탱크벽체로부터 코어를 채취하였다. 코어를 채취하기 전 해당위치에 일반적인 비파괴시험 방법인 반발경도 검사를 4개의 다른 영역에 각 3군데 위치에서 이루어졌다. 채취한 콘크리트 코어에 대해 압축강도 시험결과의 실제 압축강도 데이터와 반발경도 데이터를 이용하여 LNG 저장탱크의 압축강도 추정식을 개발하였다.

For most upland crops in Korea, underground water is used to ensure an adequate water supply. Thus, surface water storage tanks are needed to supply surface water from reservoirs or streams. This study discusses the design, manufacture and monitoring of a water storage tank capable of reliably supplying water to crops and preventing the inflow of floating debris. The study was conducted in an apple orchard in Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do in Korea. Based on the water requirements of the crops and size of the orchard, a required flow volume of about 0.6 ㎥·h-1 was determined, along with a surface water storage tank capacity of 1.2 ㎥. Following a comparison with other materials, stainless steel (STS) was used to construct the water tank. The tank was designed to provide 14 hours of irrigation, enabling a small-capacity, cost-efficient tank design to be used. A surface water irrigation test was performed using the surface water storage tank. The average surface water irrigation flow rate was 0.00045 ㎥·m-2·h-1. The water quality test showed that the pH, suspended solids (SS), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) values satisfied the reference values for agricultural water. The test results showed that the surface water storage tank evaluated in this study allows for crop irrigation when there is a lack of groundwater during droughts.
