Fluid-structure dynamics is an important subject in various fields such as nuclear power, petrochemical, offshore, and aerospace industries. The term ''fluid-structure dynamics'' covers the structural response, fluid transients and their interactions (fluid-structure interactions) of fluid-structure systems can be either: (1) fluid contained within structures; or (2) structures surrounded by fluid. Examples of (1) are pressure waves in piping and seismic response of liquid-storage tanks. Examples of (2) are fluid-induced vibration and dynamic response of submerged components. The response of fluid-structure systems can be either vibrational in nature or highly transient depending on the characteristics of external loadings. The aim of this volume is to provide a forum for bringing together recent research activities in various areas of fluid-structure dynamics. It is hoped that this volume will be beneficial for future research and upgrade the current analysis and design methodology of fluid-structure systems under dynamic loadings.
