Also, a synopsis of the modern structural codes and standards given regarding the matter, showing the lack of information on shear buckling for liquid filled tanks. The first chapter is devoted to help the reader understand the basic aspects of buckling found in the literature, which are vital for someone who desires to investigate buckling in general. For that reason, an analytic approach will be followed, in which shear buckling is studied within the boundaries of elasticity for a nonlinear shell theory in order, in that manner, to simulate reality in the best possible way. Such a problem is quite common nowadays to be tackled by engineers with the aid of FEM programs for practical purposes, something which on the other hand deprives the engineer of getting a deep understanding and insight of the phenomenon. The one which is investigated is shear buckling through the application of a static horizontal ground earthquake force on a clamped at the top tank. Thin shells are susceptible to buckling, a phenomenon that takes several forms and calls for extra attention. The focus of this thesis is concentrated on ground based thin cylindrical tanks filled with water made out of steel.
They fall into the category of shell structures and this is how they need to be studied. The usage of tanks has been quite common throughout the industry during the last decades.
