Description
Summary:	A theoretical and an experimental investigation were carried out on three circular cylinders in air and also with the cylinders containing water. The investigations consisted of experimentally determining the circumferential eigenmodes and accompanying frequencies of these vessels, and then comparing the experimental results with the theoretical predictions. The theoretical analysis was based on the finite element method. Comparison between theory and experiment was found to be good for the higher eigenmodes, but less satisfactory for the lower eigenmodes.
