Visualization of dynamic behaviour of a petrochemistry petroleum coke plant under vertical various seismic loadings

摘要

The goal of this study was to characterize the 3D deformation and stresses under various seismic loadings of a petroleum coke plant using computer modelling techniques. Stresses, deformations and strains were computed using the finite element modelling for a range of different seismic loading. Numerical modelling based on the finite element analysis was used to represent the system dynamic behaviour. Extensive experimental results, including a detailed study on model performance leads us to conclude that the proposed method can be highly accurate and a useful tool in the system designing.
