An investigation into the aerodynamic characteristics of catenary contact wires in a cross-wind [PDF]
, 2001 An experimental analysis of the aerodynamic characteristics of catenary contact wires is presented. The aerodynamic data obtained were used to calculate the Glauert-Den Harthog criterion for one-dimensional galloping.

The interaction between flow-induced vibration mechanisms of a square cylinder with varying angles of attack [PDF]
, 2012 This study examines the influence of angle of attack of a square section cylinder on the cylinder’s flow-induced vibration, where the direction of the vibration is transverse to the oncoming flow.

The galloping of a 4:1 rectangular cylinder at Re = 300
AIP Advances, 2023 The flow-induced vibration (FIV) of a rectangular cylinder with a side ratio of 4 at Re = 300 is numerically investigated by a two-dimensional spectral-element method. The cylinder is constrained to vibrate only in the cross-flow direction.

Transverse galloping of two-dimensional bodies having a rhombic cross-section [PDF]
, 2014 Transverse galloping is a type of aeroelastic instability characterized by oscillations perpendicular to wind direction, large amplitude and low frequency, which appears in some elastic two-dimensional bluff bodies when they are subjected to an incident ...

Meta‐Virtuality: Strategies of Disembeddedness in Virtual Interiorities
Journal of Interior Design, EarlyView., 2022 ABSTRACT To reclaim their seat in the rapidly growing market of virtual space, designers of the built environment can benefit from reevaluating theories that see the virtual as a mere extension/reflection of the physical. By claiming ontological autonomy from external worlds, the virtual is liberated from the hegemonic control of the physical.

Experimental Investigation of Flow-Induced Motion and Energy Conversion of a T-Section Prism
Energies, 2018 Flow-induced motion (FIM) performs well in energy conversion but has been barely investigated, particularly for prisms with sharp sections. Previous studies have proven that T-section prisms that undergo galloping branches with high amplitude are ...

Optimal electromagnetic energy extraction from transverse galloping [PDF]
, 2014 A fully coupled electro-fluid-elastic model for electromagnetic energy harvesting from Transverse Galloping is presented here. The model considers a one degree-of-freedom galloping oscillator where fluid forces are described resorting to quasi-steady ...
