摘要
Liquid storage tanks play a vital role in the modern chemical process industry (CPI). The strong ground motion caused by large-scale earthquakes may easily impose severe structural damage on liquid storage tanks, leading to a series of catastrophic cascaded events. The seismic damage estimation of liquid storage tanks is a challenging problem, as the fluid-structure interaction exhibits extremely complicated and non-stationary response behavior. This study develops a novel data-driven methodology to estimate the seismic damage state probability distri-bution of liquid storage tanks in the contexts of label ambiguity and data imbalance. With the support of the advanced deep learning framework, synthetic oversampling methods, and label enhancement techniques, a hybrid deep belief network-based label distribution learning system (HDBN-LDLS) is proposed for probability distribution learning. The proposed HDBN-LDLS is evaluated on the widely used ALA database. Simulation re-sults indicate that HDBN-LDLS can achieve a balanced estimation for all damage states while maintaining suf-ficient robustness to cope with label ambiguity. The reliability of the obtained data-driven model is validated by a damaged tank in the 2006 Silakhor earthquake. For practical applications, a more natural way to estimate a seismic damaged tank is to assign a membership degree to each possible damage state. The proposed method-ology can quickly obtain the seismic damage state probability curves of a specific liquid storage tank, which can be used to support quantitative risk assessment and seismic design.
