This article investigates the deformation behavior of elastic tubes subjected to hydrostatic pressure resulting from a constant internal fluid flow. The steady flow generates pulsatile motion within the tube, mimicking conditions commonly observed in both biological and industrial systems. Preliminary experimental findings are compared with a theoretical model that accounts for both longitudinal and transverse wave propagation. Throughout the experiments, high-resolution images were captured at various deformation stages and analyzed using advanced image processing techniques. The aim is to deepen our understanding of the mechanical response of elastic materials under dynamic loading and to validate the theoretical model through rigorous experimental observation. These insights may contribute to the improved design of fluid transport systems in biomedical and industrial applications.

摘要

This article investigates the deformation behavior of elastic tubes subjected to hydrostatic pressure resulting from a constant internal fluid flow. The steady flow generates pulsatile motion within the tube, mimicking conditions commonly observed in both biological and industrial systems. Preliminary experimental findings are compared with a theoretical model that accounts for both longitudinal and transverse wave propagation. Throughout the experiments, high-resolution images were captured at various deformation stages and analyzed using advanced image processing techniques. The aim is to deepen our understanding of the mechanical response of elastic materials under dynamic loading and to validate the theoretical model through rigorous experimental observation. These insights may contribute to the improved design of fluid transport systems in biomedical and industrial applications.
