Abstract
An analytical mechanical model for flexible cylindrical tanks is developed taking into consideration the effect of rigid base rocking motion and lateral translation. Explicit analytical expressions for the parameters of the model are given, and numerical values of these parameters are displayed in charts. The model can be used to evaluate the maximum dynamic response of a rigid or a flexible cylindrical tank subjected to earthquake loading with and without rigid base rocking motion.
