    Abstract

    In reference to the figure 1 we want to define the following quantities:

    the stress resultants in the spherical cap, in the conical shell and in the ring beam;

    the displacement of point A.

    The only loads acting on the structure are due to the fluids pressure (gas and water) intothe tank. Mechanical and geometrical quantities depend from the first letter of name (N)and the third letter of surname (C) of the student: C = 17 e N = 11.

    1 Mechanical and geometrical properties

    Mechanical properties of the material:

    Young Modulus: E= 30 103 N mm2 = 30 106 kN m2;

    Poisson Ratio: = 0.2.

    Geometry:

    Ring beam:

    Width: a = 50 cm = 0,5 m;

    Height: b = 40 cm = 0,4 m.

    Spherical shell: Thickness: ts = 20 cm = 0,2 m;

    Angle: 0 =

    45 + N10

    = 48,4 = 0,8447 rad;

    Horizontal radius projection: c =

    8 + C5

    = 9,1 m.

    Conical shell:

    Thickness: tc = 30 cm = 0,3 m;

    Angle: c = 45 = 0,7854 rad.

    Loading:

    Spring: k = 50 kNcm2

    = 500 000 kN m2

    ;

    Pressure of gas: Pg = 200 kN m2.

    We can also calculate the following quantities that are not given:

    Radius of spherical shell: Rs = csin 0 =9,1m

    sin48,4= 12,17 m;

    Height of conical shell: h = c + 2a = 9,1 m + 2 0,5 m = 10,1 m;

    Length of conical shell: Lc = hsin c =10,1msin45

    = 14,28 m;

    Gravity: g = 9,81 m s2;

    Density of water: = 1000 kg m3;

    Specific weight of water: w = g = 9,81 m s21000 kg m3 = 9,81 kN m3.

    2 Analysis of spherical shell

    The only loading acting on the shell is the gas under pressure and it is constant along theheight. By convention, as shown in the figure 2, the abscissa z is directed towards the centerof the dome. Pressure is normal to the surface of shell and has the opposite direction to z ofthe shell because the gas under pressure is into the dome. From now on the quantities drawnin the following figures will have sign a positive when directed as z, negative if drawn outsideof the sphere.

    rs = Rs sins.

    Strains depend to the membrane stress and N and N are constant therefore also the defor-mations are constant (see also figure 4).

    2.1 State of displacement at the edge

    We can calculate the radial component s of the displacement and the rotation of the tangentof the meridian. These two quantities come only from the pressure. Since the deformation of the circumference is equal to the deformation of the radius, s is given by:

    s = rs.

    Since membrane stress resultants are constant and equal between themselves, the rotation isnull along all the surface. This is understandable because the pressure pushes uniformly onthe whole surface.

    3 Analysis of conical shell

    The only loading acting on the shell is the pressure of water plus pressure of gas and decreaseslinearly along the abscissa. By convention, as shown in the figure 6, the abscissa z is directedtowards the vertical axis of the cone. Pressure is normal to the surface of shell. From nowon the quantities drawn in the following figures will have sign positive when directed as z,negative if drawn outside of the cone.

    rc = x cosc.

    3.1 State of displacement at the edge

    We can calculate the radial component s of the displacement and the rotation of the tangentof the meridian. These two quantities come only from the pressure of water plus the pressure ofgas. Since the deformation of the circumference is equal to the deformation of the horizontalradius, c is given by:

    c = rc.

    At the edges

    c(Lc) = Lc cosc = 3,5843 104(14,28 m)sin45 = 3,6202 103 m.To calculate the rotation we use the formula:

    c =1

    tanc

    c = 2,6546 104

    The influence coefficients are derivable from the Governing Differential Equation.

    4 Ring beam

    In order to analyze the interaction between the ring beam with the shells we have to find theinfluence coefficients of the ring beam. The radius of the middle line of the beam is:

    RRB

    = c + a = 9,1 m + 0,5 m = 9,6 m.

    The area of the cross section of the beam is:

    ARB = (2a)(2b) = (2 0,5 m)(2 0,4 m) = 0,8 m2

    The inertia modulus is:

    IRB =1

    5 Compatibility equations

    Solving the problem via flexibility method we write five compatibility equations than corre-spond to the five unknowns (figure 11). The shells are clamped on the ring beam. Compat-ibility equations represent the displacements of the ring beam respect the two shells and thespring and take into account horizontal displacements and rotations.

    Where point B is the edge of the dome and B is the same point but on the ring beam. Thepoint C is the edge of the cone and C is the same point but on the ring beam. Points D andD are referred to the spring. In terms of influence coefficients we can write:

    1.H,sX1 + M,sX2 + s = H,RBH+ M,RBMt;

    2.H,sX1 + M,sX2 + s = M,RBMt;

    5.1

    kX5 = H,RBH.

    By expanding H and Mt and collecting the unknowns X1 X5 we obtain a linear systemKx = b where K is the stiffness matrix, x is the vector of unknowns and b is the vector ofthe knowns. The matrix is:

    (H,s + H,RB + bM,RB) (M,s M,RB ) (H,RB bM,RB ) (M,RB ) (H,RB)(H,s bM,RB) (M,s + M,RB ) (bM,RB) (M,RB ) 0

    We can make a quick check of the stiffness matrix by controlling that all the terms of themain diagonal are positive and that the matrix is symmetric. In this case the matrix could becorrected because the two conditions are satisfied.

    During the analysis of the forces acting on the beam we have neglected the thickness ofthe shells in for safety reasons: the redundant forces are increased.

    6 Flexural actions

    Now we want to compute and graphics the displacements and reactions of the shells. To dothis we calculate the membrane solution at least at the edges of the shells.

    In order to do this we can decompose vertical force V in one axial force S e and one

    horizontal force H.For the spherical shell:

    Ss(0) = N(0) = 1216,9 kN m1,

    Hs(0) = Ss(0)cos0 = 1216,9 kN m1 cos48,4 = 807,94 kN m1

    For the conical shell:

    Sc(Lc) = Nx(Lc) = 1285,5 kN m1,

    Hc(Lc) = Sc(Lc)cosc = 1285,5 kN m1 cos45 = 908,99 kN m1

    6.1 Solutions of the differential equation

    As we know, after a distance from the edge where are applied the disturbances, the theinfluence of those forces is negligible. Point A is on the summit of the cap. If the distance

    BA between the edge and the point A is greater than , we can consider only displacementdue to the pressure Pg and neglected the other forces.

    BA = Rs0 = 12,17 m 48,4 = 10,279 m

    so BA. The displacement of A is given by the sum of the displacement of the dome andthe displacement of the ring beam due to the rotation around the support. With ( 4) we havethe horizontal displacement of the dome due to the pressure. The orthogonal displacement is:

    A =s(0)

    Mt give a negative rotation (clockwise) so the point B goes upward.

    B = 2aMtM;RB = 2 0,5 356,91 7,2000 105 = 0,025 m

    The sum of the two terms give the total displacement of the point A:

    tot = A + B = 1,9745 103 m + 0,0025 m = 0,0046 m

    The support has the task of pulling downwards the beam and the whole tank. This is unusualin civil engineering but justified because the own weight is neglected. The gas pushes upwardthe dome much more than the water does on the cone. The cone has an average slope of thewalls greater than the sphere and this goes to deflect the push to the sides horizontally.
