Abstract

The intended aim of the paper is to provide the scope of the effect of an attached damper upon the stability of a cantilevered viscoelastic tubular pipe conveying fluid. The effect of the damping coefficient of a damper is investigated in detail in connection with the position of the damper as well. It is found that a damper attached to a thin pipe may have a little stabilizing effect on the pipe. Any damper attached to the pipe at the discharge end may be most destabilizing. A lumped mass accompanied by a damper may be destabilizing. The theoretical predictions were checked by some experiments.
