Introduction
The analytical procedures usually employed for design of
piping systems are approximate, in part since they neglect the
effects of structural mass, stiffness and damping on transient
pressures in the contained liquid. Although a number of
studies addressing this issue have appeared in the recent
literature, and although significant gains have been realized,
there remains a need to rigorously investigate all of the
mechanisms by which properties of the pipe structure influence liquid transients and vice versa.
In their attempts to more accurately couple fluid-structure
interaction in piping systems, investigators have utilized
several different methodologies. The conventional and most
common means to represent the structural motion of the piping has been to employ finite element techniques, and the
coupled liquid motion has been modeled either by finite
elements or by the method of characteristics. Complete modeling has not yet been achieved from the viewpoint of correctly
coupling the significant motions in both the piping and the liquid. This paper presents wave equations which account for
the coupled motion of piping and contained liquid. A technique based on acoustic wave analysis allows explicit solution
ol the system of equations.

Characteristic Equations. Equations (1)(14) are hyperbolic partial differential equations and can be converted to ordinary differential equations by the method of characteristics
transformation [10]. The method has been applied to
Timoshenko beam theory by Leonard and Budiansky [11],
and to axial coupled behavior for liquid-filled pipe by Otwell,
Wiggert and Hatfield [1]. The complete set of characteristic
and compatibility equations corresponding to equations
(1)-(14) is given below. Equations 20 and 21 have been
simplified by assuming that
