TL;DR: In this article, a modal analysis approach was adopted to reconstruct the displacement response based on the strain signals in measurement positions, and the influence of separation distance on the multi-mode FIV behaviors of two tandem flexible cylinders was investigated from various aspects, e.g. strain and displacement responses, dominant frequencies and modes, mean drag force coefficients.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of yaw angle on the multi-mode response of a yawed flexible cylinder subjected to vortex-induced vibrations were investigated and discussed based on the experimental results.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of experimental tests were carried out to investigate FIV of two side-by-side flexible cylinders with high aspect ratio (length to diameter, L/D = 350) in a towing tank.

TL;DR: A series of experimental tests were conducted on vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of a flexible inclined cylinder with a yaw angle equals 45° for investigating the response characteristics in a towing tank.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydrodynamic coefficients of two staggered flexible cylinders are calculated using the structural responses acquired from the model tests, and the fluctuating forces in the CF and IL directions are reconstructed using a finite element model.
