TLDR
For better understanding physical mechanism of radial disturbances, previously proposed to disturb the wake flow and vortex-induced vibration of risers, numerical simulations are carried out for the flow around the fixed cylinder with such disturbances at a Reynolds number of 100 as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
For better understanding physical mechanism of radial disturbances, previously proposed to disturb the wake flow and vortex-induced vibration of risers, numerical simulations are carried out for the flow around the fixed cylinder with such disturbances at a Reynolds number of 100. After introducing disturbances, specific distributions of flow and vertical vorticity near cylinder surfaces are identified and related to different vortex patterns. The spanwise variation of free shear layers is discussed and physically explained. Different characteristics for the pressure on cylinder surfaces, frequency of vortex shedding and time history of lift are also analyzed and presented in detail.

Effect of perforation on flow past a conic cylinder at \varvec{Re} = 100: wavy vortex and sign laws

TL;DR: In this paper, a flow past a peak-perforated conic shroud is numerically simulated at a Reynolds number of 100 and a special phenomenon, spacial distribution of streamwise and vertical components of vorticity with specific signs in the near wake, is analyzed based on two models of stream wise and vertical vortices in explaining physical reasons of top and bottom shear layers wavily varied across the span.
