Finite element procedures are employed to investigate the dynamic behavior of curved pipes, specifically resonance frequencies and modeshapes. Pipe geometries are chosen to reflect industry norms and the study is limited to frequencies below 1600 Hz. Experimental and theoretical procedures are employed to verify finite element results where appropriate. A parametric study is undertaken to observe...
