Nonlinear Resonant Responses, Mode Interactions, and Multitime Periodic and Chaotic Oscillations of a Cantilevered Pipe Conveying Pulsating Fluid under External Harmonic Force

Figure 8

The bifurcation diagrams and maximum Lyapunov exponents of the cantilevered pipe conveying pulsating fluid are obtained for the external excitations when the flow velocity is . (a) versus external excitation, (b) versus external excitation, and (c) maximum Lyapunov exponents versus flow velocity.
