Abstract: | In [1, 2] a mathematical model of the motion of a fluid in a pipe whose axis is a curve in space was discussed and certain simplifications of the problem were studied. The propagation of linear and nonlinear waves in the framework of the model was studied. In the present paper we consider a simple wave flow in a pipe with elastic walls suing one of the models introduced in [1], which, unlike [2], takes into account axial displacements of the pipe. The basic equations describing the propagation of waves in the pipe are obtained.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Technicheskoi Fiziki, No. 3, pp. 58–63, May–June, 1986. |
