Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Liquid Storage Tanks Isolated by Sliding-Based Systems
Liquid-filled tanks are effective storage infrastructure for water, oil, and liquefied natural gas (LNG). Many such large-scale tanks are located in regions with high seismicity. Therefore, very frequently base isolation technology has to be adopted to reduce the dynamic distress of storage tanks, p...
