Abstract
A mathematical model for propagation of hydroelastic waves in a pipe is developed using the equations of motion of a shell and a fluid. A method for deriving two–dimensional equations is proposed, and asymptotic formulas for solutions of these equations are obtained. A model problem is solved numerically, and the results are compared with data obtained by others. The results obtained make it possible to calculate the propagation of pressure waves for an arbitrary (within the framework of the assumptions made) shape of the axial line of the pipe and can be used in designing systems for diagnostics of pipeline performance.
