Response and wake patterns of two side-by-side elastically supported circular cylinders in uniform laminar cross-flow

TL;DR: In this article, two side-by-side elastically supported circular cylinders in a uniform flow with the Reynolds number of 100 are numerically investigated by using the immersed boundary method, where the cylinders are constrained to oscillate in the cross-flow direction with a center-to-center spacing ratio T / D ranging from 2 to 5.

Characteristics and suppression of flow-induced vibrations of two side-by-side circular cylinders

TL;DR: In this paper, a free-vibration experiment was conducted to examine flow-induced vibration (FIV) characteristics of two identical circular cylinders in side-by-side arrangements at spacing ratio T = T/D = 0.1-3.2, covering all possible flow regimes, where T is the gap spacing between the cylinders and D is the cylinder diameter.

Multi-mode flow-induced vibrations of two side-by-side slender flexible cylinders in a uniform flow

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.

Vortex-induced vibration suppression of a main circular cylinder with two rotating control rods in its near wake: Effect of the rotation direction

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of rotation direction of control rods on vortex-induced vibration suppression is investigated numerically by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models coupling with a fluid-structure interaction (FSI) computational method.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-equation turbulence model is proposed that is shown to be quite accurate for attached boundary layers in adverse pressure gradient, compressible boundary layers, and free shear flows.

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.

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.

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.
