Determination of the stress-strain state of models of steel cylindrical tanks using the “ANSYS” program

Abstract

In the world, metal cylindrical shell constructions occupy a leading position in the construction of reservoirs for various purposes, bodies of water pressure generating towers, television towers, chimneys, lighting masts, tower cranes and similar engineering structures. In this direction, in developed countries such as the USA, Germany, Japan, and Russia, special attention is paid to increasing the load-carrying capacity of cylindrical shell structures, ensuring earthquake resistance and priority, reducing metal consumption, preventing the resulting deformations, and thereby ensuring their reliable operation. In this regard, one of the important tasks is to increase the priority of various construction structures, optimize their shape and size, improve existing calculation methods, and develop modern advanced methods of construction preparation and assembly.
