A study of the influence of wall flexibility on pressure in rectangular silos

The pressure cxcrtcd by the stored material on rcctangular planform flexible walled silos is investigated during filling and discharge. Tests on a large scale steel model silo with a pyramidal hopper showed that the stress state of the stored material is significantly influenced by the wall flexibil...
