Numerical assessment of liquid filled container subjected to free fall on rigid steel plate

Chemicals can be a great threat to society and the environment, despite its wide usage in industrial applications. Extra precautions have to be taken into account, moreover with increasing number of accident cases involving chemical-transporting tanks. Precautions should be taken especially when tr...
