Fluid-Structure Interactions: Slender Structures and Axial Flow, Vol. 1
Search in google:
Fluid-Structure Interactions is the first of two volumes which concentrates on the dynamics of slender bodies within, or containing axial flow. Paidoussis has provided an authoritative and cohesive text with far-reaching applications, including both the fundamentals and mechanisms leading to flow-induced vibrations.The text discusses the causes of vibration as well as the symptoms, and also provides long-term solutions. For example, discovering the source of the vibrations, rather than suggesting a buffer to reduce the effect of the vibrations. The broad comprehensive treatment of this important area, and the complete bibliography of main works, provide the tools with which the reader can solve similar problems to those illustrated. Booknews Concentrates on the dynamics of slender, cylindrical bodies within or containing axial flow, discussing causes of vibration as well as symptoms, and providing long-term solutions. Contains chapters on concepts and methods, pipes conveying fluid, nonlinear and chaotic dynamics, and curved pipes, plus detailed appendices on equations and theory. For researchers, practitioners, and students in fluid- structure interactions, flow-induced vibrations, and dynamics.
