description Numerical computation of wave propagation in laminated cylinders with internal fluid and residual stress is obtained using a Wave Finite Element formulation for 2D waveguides. Only a very small segment of the system is modelled, resulting in a very low-order finite element (FE) model to which the theory of wave propagation in 2D periodic structures is applied. The method uses standard FE formulations and exploits the capability of commercial FE software to model both fluid and structure and their interaction, resulting in a very large reduction in computational time. The presented approach is general, and can be applied without the need to make assumptions related to shell theory or low-frequency analysis. In particular, the laminated structure is discretised using 3D solid elements, thus representing the through-thickness dynamics with high accuracy. Residual radial and hoop stresses are included in the model by adding the FE pre-stress stiffness matrix to the original stiffness matrix of the system. The method provides simultaneously a very substantial reduction of computational cost, accurate solutions up to very high frequency and prediction of the dispersion curves for selected circumferential orders without the need for any further analysis. Here, the formulation of the method is introduced and its application to laminated cylinders filled with an acoustic fluid is presented. A composite, reinforced rubber cylinder, pre-stressed by a circumferential tension, is also shown as an example of a laminated pipe for high-pressure applications.
