FLUID STRUCTURE INTERACTION PHENOMENA IN PRESSURE VESSEL AND PIPING SYSTEMS

The volume contains seven papers, in which the fluid-structure interaction phenomena is considered with respect to a number of pressure vessel and piping problems which are of particular interest to the power generation industry, but no less important to many other applications. The papers address such problems as the fluid-elastic vibration of heat exchanger tube banks and nuclear reactor fuel rods; flow-induced vibration of nuclear reactor internal components; vibration of piping systems containing fluid; crack extension of tubes containing pressurized fluid; and the response of fluid-filled vessels or pipes to incident pressure waves. The methods used by the authors encompass analytical, numerical (with large digital computers), and experimental together with dimensional analysis. Individual papers are indexed separately.
