Abstract: - The liquid hydrocarbon storage tanks are the objects of environmental danger. It is necessary to
perform additional calculations and develop appropriate design solutions to minimize the risks of their accidents
in the event of the earthquake or explosions. The degree of damage to the environmentally hazardous object
during the earthquake depends not only on the seismic effects level, but also on the quality of seismic design and
construction. The possibility of exposure to smaller but more frequent and prolonged seismic loads caused by
technogenic and natural factors has not been sufficiently taken into account in tanks designing for the
environmentally hazardous liquids storage. The composite materials using with nanoinclusions in tanks for
storage liquid hydrocarbons, allows to increase the reliability of tanks under seismic loads and extend their service
life under the influence of natural and technogenic influences of various origin. The results of the calculations
have been shown that the use of composite materials with nanoinclusions in the steel spheres form is the best
option for environmentally friendly operation of tanks under seismic loads.

1 Introduction
To design the liquid hydrocarbon storage tanks that
are objects of environmental danger, according to
current building standards, it is necessary to take into
account the 1% probability of exceeding the
estimated intensity of seismic impacts for 50 years.
This factor also significantly increases the risks of
trouble-free operation and, accordingly, the cost and
complexity of construction of these engineering
structures, as it is necessary to perform additional
calculations and develop appropriate design solutions
to minimize the risks of their accidents in the event
of the earthquake or explosions. The degree of
damage to the environmentally hazardous object
during the earthquake depends not only on the
seismic effects level, but also on the quality of
seismic design and construction. According to recent
seismological studies, it has been established that in
Ukraine, including its platform part, there is the
danger of local and strong subcortical
earthquakes with the magnitude more than 5 points
[1], [2], [3].
According to the existing standards [2], [3],
the foundation ring is calculated for the main
loads combination, and for construction sites
with seismicity of 7 points and above is for the
special loads combination. Thus, the possibility of
exposure to smaller but more frequent and
prolonged seismic loads caused by technogenic and
natural factors has not been sufficiently taken
into account in tanks designing for the
environmentally hazardous liquids storage.
2 Problem Formulation
Containers and tanks for environmentally hazardous
liquids storage are widely used in various
engineering practice fields, such as aircraft
construction, chemical and oil gas industry, energy
engineering, transport. These tanks are operating
under conditions of high technological loads and
filling with oil, flammable or toxic substances. As a
result of the sudden action of seismic loads, the liquid

stored in the tanks begins to sense the intense
splashes.
Sloshing is a phenomenon in the number of
industrial facilities: in containers for storage of
liquefied gas, oil, fuel tanks, in the reservoirs of cargo
tanks. It is known that partially filled tanks are
exposed to particularly intense splashes. This could
lead to high pressure on the tank walls, destruction of
the structure or loss of stability and can cause the
release of environmentally hazardous contents into
the environment and lead to serious consequences
[4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9].
The release of environmentally hazardous liquids,
especially liquid hydrocarbons from storage tanks to
the environment and their further spread to the
territory of settlements could cause mass poisoning
of people and animals, lead to environment pollution.
Liquid spills could lead to explosions and fires that
could spread to nearby reservoirs and surrounding
areas. Economic losses from accidents with tanks
destruction, leakage and fire of liquid hydrocarbons
include not only direct losses, but also the cost of
measures to restore the environment [10], [11].
To ensure the environmental safety of areas
adjacent to tanks filled with liquid hydrocarbons, it is
necessary to take into account the safe design of the
tank, tank material, forecasting the effects of natural
and technogenic factors on tanks. The set of natural
factors that must be taken into account are seismic
loads, groundwater level of the reservoir location and
others. Technogenic factors should include sudden
traffic accidents, industrial accidents, vibration,
seismic and artificial impacts, and so on.
2.1 Literature analysis
In the most research papers of Shevtsov A. A.
[11], Wilson S. [12] Islamovic F. [13], Godoy
L.A. [14], Jaca R.C. [15] the significance
estimation of tanks influences for liquid
hydrocarbons storage on environment and
monitoring of reservoirs tightness changes, the
destruction rate of their structure under the
technogenic and natural factors action have been
investigated.
The issues concerned with liquid sloshing in
tanks have been conducted in the works of
Ibrahim R.A. [16], [17]. It should be noted
the paper on sloshing liquid in cylindrical
tanks under the seismic loads action [18], [19],
[20].
The necessity of control and impact
assessment of nanomaterials on the environment
for safety and efficient use of nanotechnologies
has been substantiated in paper [7].
In the previous works of the authors [4],[5],
[6] the seismic loads on the reservoirs of oil
storages have been treated, the use of
nanocomposite materials has been proposed
to ensure the antistatic effect of
nanocomposite materials [21], [22]. In other
works [23], [24], [25] the mechanical
characteristics of materials with different
inclusions have been investigated. But the use
of nanocomposites as the reservoir material
to increase their strength characteristics has
not been studied.
3 Problem Solution
The problem of free and forced oscillations
of the elastic rotation shell, partially filled with
an ideal incompressible fluid has been
considered (Fig. 1.)
Fig. 1. Rotation shell, partially filled with liquid
Let S be the wetted surface of the shell, 0 is
the free surface of the liquid.
Suppose that the fluid is ideal,
incompressible, and its flow (induced by body
motion) is vortex-free. Denoting the velocity
components by
, the incompressibility
condition of the continuous medium will be
obtained from the following equality:
 


 (1)
Since the flow is vortex-free, there is the
velocity potential that satisfies the harmonic
equation due to (1).
The equations system of motion is
symbolically written in the form

P the pressure of the liquid on the wetted
shell surface.
The small harmonic oscillations of the elastic
shell has been studied. There is represented the
vector U in the form U=ueit, where is the
frequency and u is the natural oscillations form
of the shell under consideration with the liquid.
To solve the free and forced oscillations
problem of shell structures with compartments
containing liquid, the method of given shapes
has been developed. Its essence is as follows.
The connected system of differential equations
to elastic displacements of the structure and fluid
pressure has been formed. Three sets of basic
functions have been used to build the
representation of system solutions. The first of
them are the oscillations natural forms of the
structure in the absence of aggregate used to
build hydroelastic movements.
The second and third basic functions sets are
used to represent the potential velocities and
fluid pressure on the wetted structure surface.
The velocity potential is described by the sum of
two "partial" potentials. One of them describes
the natural liquid oscillations in the rigid tank,
taking into account the forces of gravity. The
second set refers to the natural oscillations of the
elastic shell with the fluid without taking into
consideration gravitational forces. As basic
functions for solving problems concerning free
and forced oscillations of rotation shells,
partially filled with liquid, the natural oscillation
modes of the unfilled shell have been accepted.
The following presentation of the natural
oscillation modes of the shell with the liquid has
been used:

problems is not checked.

To determine the potential 2, it has been

After performing the scalar product of this

Thus, the scheme of solving the related
dynamic problem for the rotation shell, partially
filled with fluid, contains several stages, each of
that has its own value. These stages are as
follows:
1. Frequencies and forms determination of
free oscillations of the unfilled shell by the finite
element method.
2. Frequencies and forms determination of
fluid oscillations in the rigid shell under the
action of gravity using the limiting elements
method.
3. Frequencies and forms determination of
oscillations of the elastic shell without taking
into account the action of gravity using the
limiting elements.method.
4. Solving the system of second-order
differential equations using the 4th and 5th order
Runge-Kutta method.
Provided calculations have been allowed to
build the necessary systems of basic functions
for the forced oscillations study, as well as the
study of the surface tension influence and
nonlinear effects on oscillations of shells with
fluid. First, the empty shell has been considered.
The Fig. 2 shows the oscillations forms of such
shell under the specified conditions of
attachment.

Note that the oscillation shapes are the same
for shells made of different materials, while the
frequencies differ by about 5-7%. This allows
tuning from unwanted resonant frequencies,
including by selecting the appropriate material.
These calculations refer to the construction of
the basic functions first system according to
[18], [19].
Next, it has been formed the second system
construction of basic functions, for which
the liquid sloshing in the rigid tank has
been considered. The acoustic
approximation has been applied. The Fig. 3
shows the finite element grid for acoustic
calculation.

The 31928 finite elements have been selected,
further increase in their number did not lead to
the significant change in the results. The method
of boundary elements has been also used
to compare the calculations [18], [19]. The
100 boundary elements along the cylindrical
wall, 100 elements along the bottom radius
and 120 elements along the free surface radius
have been selected. Fig. 4 shows the modes of

From the given data there has been drawn the
conclusion of the obtained results probability.
Note that the splash frequencies are the lowest,
they do not depend on the choice of material, at
least at the selected ratios between the geometric
characteristics of the shell.
Thus, the second system of basic functions
has been built.
The third system of basic functions definition
will be obtained. To do this, it has been
performed the calculation in the hydroelastic
formulation. Note that it has been proposed to
search for the velocities potential in the form of
the sum of two potentials = 1 + 2. In this
case, the potential 2 corresponds to the
definition of free surface splashes, i.e. it has been
found as the basic functions linear combination
of the second system. The potential 1
corresponds to the oscillations of the elastic shell
with the liquid, but without taking into account
the movements of the free surface and is depicted
as the linear combination of basic functions of
the third system. FEM and BEM could also be
used to define these basic functions.
Here the calculation has been performed with
the FЕM help. Fig. 5 shows the corresponding
oscillations forms.

From the above results the oscillations forms
of shells of different materials are the same, and
the difference in oscillation frequencies reaches
5-7 percent, which may be significant when
conducting resonance tuning.
4 Conclusion
The composite materials using with
nanoinclusions in tanks for storage liquid
hydrocarbons, allows to increase the reliability
of tanks under seismic loads and extend their
service life under the influence of natural and
technogenic influences of various origin. The
results of the calculations have been shown that
the use of composite materials with
