Dynamics of axially functionally graded pipes conveying fluid using a higher order shear deformation theory

Abstract

This study presents a novel approach for addressing dynamical characteristics of fluid conveying axially functionally graded pipes. The variation of material properties of the pipe along axial direction is taken into account according to a power-law function. Owing to a unified expression for displacement field, the developed model can be recast into classical Euler – Bernoulli and Timoshenko tube models as well as a newly developed higher order shear deformable tube model; the latter satisfies zero-shear conditions on free surfaces, and hence yields more realistic results. The system of partial differential equations governing dynamics of fluid conveying axially functionally graded pipes is derived through utilization of Hamilton’s principle. Differential quadrature scheme is used to discretize the system of differential equations and generate numerical results. Detailed numerical investigations of the current fluid-solid interaction problem elucidate the effects of material gradation pattern, transverse shear deformation distribution profile along radial direction and fluid velocity on the natural frequencies of fluid conveying functionally graded pipes. The critical fluid velocity, which is a significant design parameter, can also be determined by means of developed procedures in this study.
