Abstract
This paper mathematically derives fluid pressure on a rectangular rigid tank with unit depth, which models a section of a center part of a flat-bottom cylindrical shell tank, accompanied with uplift motion. Employing boundary conditions consisting of fluid velocity imparted by motion of the side walls and bottom plate of the tank along with uplifting, the equation of continuity of fluid given by the Laplace equation is solved as the parabolic partial differential equation of Neumann problem. The fluid pressure is given by a function of the velocity potential. Comparison of mathematical results with numerical ones based on explicit FE analysis corroborates its accuracy and applicability on design procedure of flat-bottom cylindrical shell tanks.
