Abstract

The influence of mechanical properties of a large-sized shell on its forced oscillations in a flow of a viscous fluid is considered. As is known [1], the flow past a shell can be controlled by generating a wave that runs over the shell surface. Hydrodynamic calculations performed for only transverse running waves [2–6] show the potential possibility of significantly decreasing the drag, but conditions under which these running waves can be maintained in a shell of finite length had not been studied until now. The present paper considers the laws that govern a running wave generated in the front part of a shell of revolution occurring in a flow of a viscous fluid.
