Simulation for a floating roof behavior of cylindrical storage tank due to wind load (Wind velocity effect on sloshing)

Floating roofs are used on large cylindrical storage tanks to prevent evaporation of oil. The single-deck floating roof considered herein consists of a thin circular plate, referred to as a "deck", attached to a buoyant ring with a hollow rectangular cross section referred to as a...
