Conveying hard and the abrasive materials has been one of the major operational problems in industrial situations. The erosion of plant components, especially the pipe bends by abrasive solid particles of a fluid stream makes installation of pneumatic conveying systems a very costly affair for industry. Most users have either lived with the problem or have employed expensive bend materials to r...

In this paper, both linear and non-linear dynamics of a slender uniform pipe conveying pulsating fluid, which is axially moving in an incompressible are comprehensively studied. The vibration equations the system established by considering various factors, including coordinate conversion system, “axial added mass coefficient” describing additional inertia forces caused external Kelvin–Voigt vis...
