Vibrations in Piping Systems Caused by Fluid Transients and Seismic Excitations

考虑管道与流体的动力相互作用 它们的输送在管道系统的设计中是至关重要的。 这 项目包括两个部分。 第一个问题涉及发展 新理论和分析技术的验证， 表示管道中的液体/结构相互作用。 这个理论是 适用于各种管道应用， 动态加载 本项目的第二阶段应用该理论 地震荷载的情况下，目标是新的管道设计准则 地震多发区的设计。

Consideration of the dynamic interaction between pipes and the fluids they transport is crucial in the design of piping systems. This project comprises two components. The first addresses the development and validation of new theory and analysis techniques for accurately representing the liquid/structure interaction in piping. The theory is applicable to a wide class of piping applications subject to general dynamic loading. The second phase of this project applies the theory to the seismic loading case; the goal is new design guidelines for pipe design in earthquake prone regions.
