Abstract

The article discusses a study that proposed a numerical method for the seismic analysis of liquid nitrogen gas (LNG) tanks accounting for nonlinear sloshing effects. It discusses the numerical simulation of a structure-liquid interaction problem. The study demonstrated the accuracy and applicability of the developed method by presenting numerical examples and by studying the dynamic response of the LNG tanks under the seismic excitations.
