It is a new attempt to extend the differential quadrature method(DQM)to stability analysis ofthe straight and curved centerline pipes conveying fluid.Emphasis is placed on the study of the influences ofseveral parameters on the critical flow velocity’.Compared to other methods,this method can more easily dealwith the pipe with spring support at its boundaries and asks for much less computing effort while giving ac-ceptable precision in the numerical results.
