| | Summary: |
| | Container stack sites are risky under wind action, especially for empty containers. Wind may cause sliding and overturning in case of stacking in several levels. One such site has been analysed to determine critical wind velocities that might cause unfavourable events. Calculations for typical cases were done, and wind forces were obtained by Eurocode. Sliding was checked comparing the total wind force with the friction resisting force, and overturning was checked comparing the overturning moment caused by wind with the resisting moment from container weight. These two phenomena have different physical nature and had to be analysed separately. The problem has been also analysed using Finite element method (FEM) and contact analysis. This method proved to be more advantageous, because sliding and overturning can be solved simultaneously. The conducted research can be used as an efficient method for solving similar problems. |
