Unsteady loads for coaxial rotors in forward flight computed using a vortex particle method [PDF]
Recent advances in coaxial rotor design have shown benefits of this configuration. Nevertheless, issues related to rotor-head drag, aerodynamic performance, wake interference, and vibration should also be considered.

Lock-in of the vortex-induced vibrations of a long tensioned beam in shear flow [PDF]
The occurrence of lock-in, defined as the local synchronization between the vortex shedding frequency and the cross-flow structural vibration frequency, is investigated in the case of a tensioned beam of length to diameter ratio 200, free to move in both

Numerical Investigation of Vortex-Induced Vibrations of a Rotating Cylinder near a Plane Wall
Numerical simulations are carried out to investigate the vortex-induced vibrations of a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) near-wall rotating cylinder. Considering the effects of gap ratio, reduced velocity and rotational rate, the amplitude response, wake ...

Modelling of coupled cross-flow/in-line vortex-induced vibrations using double Duffing and van der Pol oscillators [PDF]
Many studies have typically applied a linear structural spring–mass–damper oscillator and a van der Pol wake oscillator to model a one-dimensional cross-flow vortex-induced vibration (VIV).

Vortex-induced vibrations of a cylinder with tripping wires [PDF]
Thin wires are attached on the outer surface and parallel to the axis of a smooth circular cylinder in a steady cross-stream, modelling the effect of protrusions and attachments. The impact of the wires on wake properties, and vortex-induced loads and vibration are studied at Reynolds numbers up to 4.6 × 104, with 3.0 × 104 as a focus point. For a

Multi-frequency vortex-induced vibrations of a long tensioned beam in linear and exponential shear flows [PDF]
The multi-frequency vortex-induced vibrations of a cylindrical tensioned beam of aspect ratio 200, free to move in the in-line and cross-flow directions within first a linearly and then an exponentially sheared current are investigated by means of direct

Although not always resulting in catastrophic failures, vortex-induced vibration (VIV) response can seriously impact the fatigue life and functionality of bridges, especially for separate pairs of box girders in cable-stayed bridges.
