My requirement was to do modal analysis of a hallow tank fixed at the bottom, which is of same thickness
hence it will behave like a cantilever beam of cylindrical cross-section.
So I modeled beam in space, with the cross sectional properties equivalent of tank.
Tank data:
OD : 4.334m
ID: 4.250m
Thickness of shell : 0.042m
length : 22 m
POISSON 0.3
DENSITY 325.3 kN/m3
Now for the beam model I gave the cross section properties as below calculated
Ax & Az (= π/4(do2-di2)) ,
Ixx & Izz. (=π/64(do4–di4 )) ,
While analysing I am getting error as IY missing for elements.
What is the Iyy value I need to specify???
Pls. help me out
