A critical review on the valuable researches about the aerodynamic load and consequent
structural behavior of cylindrical storage shells, has been carried out. The wind-shell …

Many tank structures may not be stable during the construction phase, and this may lead to
their becoming vulnerable to buckling under environmental loading conditions such as wind …

Circular cylindrical shells are prone to buckling failure under different types of external
pressure. These can include uniform lateral pressure, hydrostatic pressure (uniform lateral …

Seismic response analysis assesses structural safety and integrity during earthquakes and
guides design for optimal performance, compliance with regulations, and risk mitigation …

Cylindrical steel tanks are used in most countries to store bulk volumes of liquid products
such as oil, water and chemicals. These structures are commonly constructed from thin steel …

Aboveground cylindrical storage tanks are very thin shell structures which are prone to
buckling when subjected to wind pressure. Both external and internal pressures are …

The present paper investigates the wind-induced buckling and vibration of cylindrical
storage tanks based on wind tunnel experiments and time-history response analysis. Focus …

Steel storage tanks are functional components in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries.
Corrosion of steel is one of the influential factors in the seismic vulnerability of tanks. The …

Steel silos are one of the main structures for bulk solids handling and storage in many
industries and agricultural sectors. A growing body of research suggests the importance of …

Large open-top storage tanks are susceptible to buckling failure under the combination of
external and internal wind pressures. Therefore, wind girders are recommended to be …
