An aluminum storage tank is partially filled with a fuel of density g = 0.029 lb/in3. The fuel exerts a hydrostatic pressure that varies linearly with depth. A linearly varying pressure (p(y) =gy) is applied to all inner faces of the tank below the fuel surface, where y refers to the vertical distance measured from the surface of the fuel.
In this lesson, you learn the following:
- Applying a non-uniform pressure load
- Customizing your result plots
