Vortex-induced vibrations of cylinders bent by the flow

TLDR
In this paper, the authors investigate the consequences of flow-induced bending on the vortex-induced dynamics of slender cantilever cylinders, by means of numerical simulations, and find that the primary consequence of flowinduced bending is the inhibition of single mode lock-in, replaced by a multi-frequency response of the structure, and the reduction of the vibration amplitude, as a result of the broadening of the wake excitation spectrum and of the localization of the energy transfer due to the variations induced in the normal flow profile.

Low velocity water flow energy harvesting using vortex induced vibration and galloping

TL;DR: In this paper, a piecewise distributed parameter model for the piezoelectric cantilever beam with three types of bluff bodies is proposed, and a modified Van der Pol model is established to simulate the VIV force for the cylinder bluff body, and the quasi-steady hypothesis is used to obtain the galloping hydrodynamic force for tri-prism and semi-cylinder bluff bodies.
