Reduced order modelling of liquid-filled pipe systems

• In the design of vibration-sensitive structures, large three-dimensional numerical models are frequently used, those occasionally being too large to be simulated in a practical manner. More specifically, the analyses of vibrating complex water-pipe systems require efficient model order reduction strategies. In the paper, a numerical procedure for model order reduction of a water-pipe system housed in a vibration-sensitive research facility is presented. The finite element model employed includes a water-pipe system where fluid-structure interaction effects are accounted for. The reduced model is developed using component mode synthesis and a reduction of the interface degrees of freedom, enabling time-efficient dynamic analyses. The model was proven to be time-efficient and to generate output of high accuracy.
