Abstract

Flexural vibration in a pipe system conveying fluid is studied. The pipe is designed using the idea of the phononic crystals. Using the transfer matrix method, the complex band structure of the flexural wave is calculated to investigate the gap frequency range and the vibration reduction in band gap. Gaps with Bragg scattering mechanism and locally resonant mechanism can exist in a piping system with fluid loading. The effects of various parameters on the gaps are considered. The existence of flexural vibration gaps in a periodic pipe with fluid loading lends new insight into the vibration control of pipe system.
