Abstract :
It is known that the tanks, on the top of buildings, have some effect on controlling vibrations of structures. this paper takes a 12 layer frame structure as an example, under the small disturbance assumption, and by calculating disturbing with EL centro seismic wave and Taft seismic wave, comparing time history analysis results of different volumes tanks, demonstrating the controlling effects of tanks set on top of buildings.
