Abstract

The safety problem of silo has been the main problem in the world. When the wall is discharged, The dynamic pressure of the material on the silo wall is the main reason which leads to the destruction of the main body and the hidden trouble. Based on the datum from model test of silo, this paper mainly will employ the method of scale model test to study the influence of the dynamic lateral pressure changes and over-pressure coefficient of material in warehouse for two models of different height diameter ratio.
