A review of recent studies on vortex-induced vibrations of long slender cylinders

TL;DR: A review of the progress made during the past decade on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of long slender cylindrical structures is given in this article, where a brief outline is given of numerical methods used in predicting the response of a long slender cylinder undergoing VIV.

Two-degree-of-freedom flow-induced vibrations on isolated and tandem cylinders with varying natural frequency ratios

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the natural frequency ratio on the characteristics of vortex-induced vibration (VIV) responses, including wake frequencies, orbital trajectories, response amplitudes, hydrodynamic forces and wake mode patterns, was investigated.

Modelling of coupled cross-flow/in-line vortex-induced vibrations using double Duffing and van der Pol oscillators

TL;DR: In this article, an advanced model for predicting a two-dimensional coupled cross-flow/in-line VIV of a flexibly mounted circular cylinder in a uniform flow is proposed and validated.

Flow induced motion and energy harvesting of bluff bodies with different cross sections

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the flow induced motion and energy conversion of cylinders with different cross sections using two-dimensional unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations in the Reynolds number range of 10,000 Â 30,000.

Mechanism of frequency lock-in in vortex-induced vibrations at low Reynolds numbers

TL;DR: In this paper, a CFD-based linear dynamics model combined with the direct Computational Fluid Dynamics/Computational Structural Dynamics (CFD/CSD) simulation method is utilized to study the physical mechanisms underlying frequency lock-in in vortex-induced vibrations (VIVs).

Vortex-induced vibrations

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes fundamental results and discoveries concerning vortex-induced vibration (VIV) that have been made over the last two decades, many of which are related to the push to explore very low mass and damping, and to new computational and experimental techniques that were hitherto not available.

A critical review of the intrinsic nature of vortex-induced vibrations

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the progress made during the past two decades on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of mostly circular cylindrical structures subjected to steady uniform flow is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vortex formation in the wake of an oscillating cylinder

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the acceleration of the cylinder each half cycle induces the roll-up of the two shear layers close to the body, and thereby the formation of four regions of vorticity each cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vortex shedding from oscillating bluff bodies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive review of vortex shedding in two-dimensional bluff-body wakes and present irrespective of whether the separating boundary layers are laminar or turbulent, and if the body is flexible this can cause oscillations.
