Stress Analysis Of Aboveground Atmospheric Storage Tank Due To Edge Settlement

Aboveground atmospheric storage tank is one of the important equipment in plant operation. One of the possible failures which normally overlooked is the failure of the tank due to settlement. The objective of this project is to conduct a deformation analysis based on bending moment theory and finite...
