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...

the complete 3d nonlinear dynamic problem of extensible, flexible risers conveying fluid is considered. for describing the dynamics of the system, the newtonian derivation procedure is followed. the velocity field inside the pipe formulated using hydrostatic and bernoulli equations. the hydrodynamic effects of external fluids are taken into consideration through the nonlinear drag forces in var...

The harmony search algorithm is applied to the optimum designs of functionally graded (FG)-carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-reinforced pipes conveying fluid which are subjected to a moving load. The structure is modeled by the Reddy cylindrical shell theory, and the motion equations are derived by Hamilton's principle. The dynamic displacement of the system is derived based on the differential quadratur...

A non-intrusive method to measure the particle velocities in dilute-phase pneumatic conveying is described. The method is based on correlating signals, which are measured in two flow cross-sections. The cross-correlation function generated provides information about the time it takes for a particle to travel between the measurement planes. Knowing the inter-plane distance and the time delay, th...

A set of simplified boundary conditions for a flexible beam connected to a rigid body at one end and free at the other end is presented and applied to the case of a fluidconveying, fluid-immersed pipe. These boundary conditions represent an analytically tractable approximation to those of a submersible which uses a combination of jet action and flutter instability induced tail motion to produce...

As a representative fluid-transporting system, fluid-conveying pipes play an essential role in many fields. For pipe system operation, fluid pulsation contains much information about flow parameters (flow velocity, pressure, etc.). Therefore, the measurement of is important for understanding internal flow. To use polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric film sensors to indirectly measure pr...
