Advances in dynamics of fluid-conveying pipes: Model, strategy and experiment

Fluid-conveying pipes are widely used in aerospace, nuclear, marine, and biomedical engineering, where their dynamic stability is critical to system performance and safety. Deeply understanding instability mechanisms, particularly those arising from fluid-structure interaction (FSI), and developing effective vibration control strategies are essential for ensuring reliable operation under various serving conditions. This paper presents a comprehensive review of recent advances in the dynamics and vibration control of fluid-conveying pipes, aiming to synergize cutting‑edge modeling techniques, control design methodologies, and empirical findings for a holistic framework in managing pipe-fluid dynamics. The discussion begins with classical and emerging models, covering the dynamic behaviours of spinning, curved, hyperelastic, nano-scale pipes, and systems with complex constraints. Special attention is given to the interplay among material properties, geometric configurations, and FSI effects. Subsequent survey is directed toward the passive, active vibration control strategies and structural optimization techniques, with emerging approaches in vibration energy harvesting also being considered. In addition to theoretical progress, representative experimental studies are highlighted to validate and improve the analytical frameworks. This review provides broad insights and serves as a reference for researchers and engineers engaged in the analysis and design of fluid-conveying pipe systems across diverse applications.
