Abstract

The characteristics of wave propagation in an infinite elastic cylindrical shell filled with fluid are investigated by using the vibrational power flow carried by different internal force in the shell wall. The simple harmonic motion of shell and the pressure field in the fluid are described by Flugge shell equations and Helmholtz equation respectively. The dispersion behavior of free waves is investigated. An equation is derived which determines the vibrational power flow carried by different internal force for a particular mode, and the variation of the vibrational energy ratio with frequency is discussed.
