The internal transient hydraulic phenomenon following the rapid depressurization of a thin elastic vessel submerged in water is theoretically modeled and the results are experimentally verified. The mathematical model presented simulates the hydraulic flow field developed inside a thin elastic ribstructured cylindrical vessel, following a sudden depressurization induced by a primary structural failure. The objective of the analysis is to develop a model capable of predicting the resulting internal hydraulic pressure cycle and the develop means of critically damping the transient loads.
