Book Description
With rapid economic and industrial development in China, India and elsewhere, fluid-related structural vibration and noise problems are widely encountered in many fields, just as they are in the more developed parts of the world, causing increasingly grievous concerns. Turbulence clearly has a significant impact on many such problems. On the other hand, new opportunities are emerging with the advent of various new technologies, such as signal processing, flow visualization and diagnostics, new functional materials, sensors and actuators, etc. These have revitalized interdisciplinary research activities, and it is in this context that the 2nd symposium on fluid-structure-sound interactions and control (FSSIC) was organized. Held in Hong Kong (May 20-21, 2013) and Macau (May 22-23, 2013), the meeting brought together scientists and engineers working in all related branches from both East and West and provided them with a forum to exchange and share the latest progress, ideas and advances and to chart the frontiers of FSSIC. The Proceedings of the 2nd Symposium on Fluid-Structure-Sound Interactions and Control largely focuses on advances in the theory, experimental research and numerical simulations of turbulence in the contexts of flow-induced vibration, noise and their control. This includes several practical areas for interaction, such as the aerodynamics of road and space vehicles, marine and civil engineering, nuclear reactors and biomedical science etc. One of the particular features of these proceedings is that it integrates acoustics with the study of flow-induced vibration, which is not a common practice but is scientifically very helpful in understanding, simulating and controlling vibration. This offers a broader view of the discipline from which readers will benefit greatly. These proceedings are intended for academics, research scientists, design engineers and graduate students in engineering fluid dynamics, acoustics, fluid and aerodynamics, vibration, dynamical systems and control etc. Yu Zhou is a professor in Institute for Turbulence-Noise-Vibration Interaction and Control at Harbin Institute of Technology. Yang Liu is an associate professor at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Lixi Huang, associate professor, works at the University of Hong Kong. Professor Dewey H. Hodges works at the School of Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology.
The Hydroelastic Behavior of Flat Plates as Influenced by Trailing Edge Geometry
Author: Arthur T. IppenPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Hydroelasticity
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
This report presents the results of a theoretical review and an experimental investigation of the hydroelastic vibration of thin flat plates suspended at zero mean angle of attack in a fluid stream. The review indicated that recognized experimental facts such as the influence of trailing edge geometry and the three-dimensional wake structure were inadequately related to theoretical considerations about the vibration phenomenon. The experimental investigation consisted of a detailed determination of the amplitude and frequency spectra of the vibration on a number of flat test plates which were mounted in the test section of a water tunnel at zero mean angle of attack. The effects on the vibrational behavior of trailing edge geometry, geometric and elastic properties of the plate support, free stream velocity and ambient pressure have been explored experimentally. An equation of motion has been written for the test plate - torsion spring system employed. Results of a qualitative analysis of this non-linear equation are compared with the experimental results obtained.

Flow-Induced Vibrations

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
Despite their variety, the vibration phenomena from many different engineering fields can be classified into a relatively few basic excitation mechanisms. The classification enables engineers to identify all possible sources of excitation in a given system and to assess potential dangers. This graduate-level text presents a synthesis of research results and practical experience from disparate fields in the form of engineering guidelines. It is particularly geared toward assessing the possible sources of excitation in a flow system, in identifying the actual danger spots, and in finding appropriate remedial measures or cures. Flow-induced vibrations are presented in terms of their basic elements: body oscillators, fluid oscillators, and sources of excitation. By stressing these basic elements, the authors provide a basis for the transfer of knowledge from one system to another, as well as from one engineering field to another. In this manner, well-known theories on cylinders in cross-flow or well-executed solutions from the field of wind engineering--to name just two examples--may be useful in other systems or fields on which information is scarce. The unified approach is broad enough to permit treatment of the major excitation mechanism, yet simple enough to be of practical use.

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 944
Book Description
The second of two volumes concentrating on the dynamics of slender bodies within or containing axial flow, Volume 2 covers fluid-structure interactions relating to shells, cylinders and plates containing or immersed in axial flow, as well as slender structures subjected to annular and leakage flows. This volume has been thoroughly updated to reference the latest developments in the field, with a continued emphasis on the understanding of dynamical behaviour and analytical methods needed to provide long-term solutions and validate the latest computational methods and codes, with increased coverage of computational techniques and numerical methods, particularly for the solution of non-linear three-dimensional problems. Provides an in-depth review of an extensive range of fluid-structure interaction topics, with detailed real-world examples and thorough referencing throughout for additional detail Organized by structure and problem type, allowing you to dip into the sections that are relevant to the particular problem you are facing, with numerous appendices containing the equations relevant to specific problems Supports development of long-term solutions by focusing on the fundamentals and mechanisms needed to understand underlying causes and operating conditions under which apparent solutions might not prove effective

Introduction to Finite Element Analysis for Engineers
Author: Saad A. RagabPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1040092381
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 773
Book Description
Now in its second edition, Introduction to Finite Element Analysis for Engineers is an essential introduction to FEA as a method to solve differential equations. With many practical examples focusing on both solid mechanics and fluid mechanics, it includes problems for both applications. Using a structure of classes of differential equations, the book also includes MATLAB® codes and aims to build a comprehensive understanding of FEA and its applications in modern engineering. New chapters present finite-element models of a system of partial differential equations in two or more independent variables typified by problems in theory of elasticity and plates. Chapter ten presents the finite element method for a nonlinear Mindlin-Reissner plate, and panel flutter is included as a typical example of fluid-structure interactions. The book demonstrates the power and versatility of FEA as a tool with a large number of examples of practical engineering problems. These problems range from those which can be solved without a computer, to those requiring MATLAB® or Python. With applications in civil, mechanical, aerospace, and biomedical engineering, the textbook is ideal for senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students and also aligns with mathematics courses.
