Abstract:The paper proposes a technique for the stability analysis of an elastic cylindrical shell with added mass interacting with a flowing fluid. Three cases of mass-shell contact are considered: the added mass (i) is attached to the shell at one point, (ii) has the form of a circular ring, and (iii) is distributed uniformly over the length. For each case, equations to determine the critical speeds of the fluid corresponding to the quasistatic (divergent) and dynamic (flutter) buckling of the shell are derived Keywo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
