Abstract
Abstract. This paper presents the results of an extensive experimental campaign focused on the analysis of the dynamic interactions between an elastic structure and a non-Newtonian fluid. The structure is a circular cylindrical shell clamped in one end to a shaking table and in the other end to a heavy rigid disk. The shell has been investigated both in presence and absence of fluid. The fluid is a mixture of water and corn starch flour, commonly called Oobleck. The experiments were carried out at low and high vibrating energy, in order to clarify the influence of the fluid in different conditions: changing of modal properties, onset of complex dynamics when the fluid-solid transitions take place in the fluid.
