Coupled Frequencies of a Fluid in Circular Cylindrical Tank with an Elastic Inclusion in its Roof

A closed upright rigid circular cylindrical tank is filled with a compressible and inviscid fluid as a part of the tank roof is an elastic plate. It is supposed that the tank roof and the elastic plate are eccentrically and the plate is clamped. The problem about the determination of the free coupling vibrations of the received hydroelastic system is considered. Using the Bubnov‐Galerkin method, the frequency equation is obtained. Some numerical examples are made and the results show the influence of the sizes of the radius of the elastic plate as well as of the other parameters of the hydroelastic system on its coupled frequencies.
