Abstract

This chapter outlines the semi-analytical methodology that was developed over the past decade and a half to model transient fluid-structure interaction phenomena for thin-walled structures submerged in and/or filled with fluid. The theoretical framework of the methodology based on the use of the classical apparatus of mathematical physics is exposed first. Then, a demonstration of some of the capabilities of the methodology is presented as it is applied to an industrially relevant fluid-structure interaction problem. Specifically, the response of a submerged cylindrical shell to a double-front shock wave is considered, with the emphasis on the existence of certain resonance-like phenomena which result in a considerable increase of the maximum stress induced in the structure by such a loading. The outcomes of the modeling using both the 2D and 3D versions of the methodology are presented, and the differences between the results produced by these two approaches, a lower-fidelity one and a higher-fidelity one, are highlighted.
