Fluid-structure interaction can be utilized to harvest the low-speed wind energy for
sustaining the low-power sensors for structural health monitoring. To enhance the low …

This paper presents a systematic study of the cross-flow-induced vibration on a spring-
supported circular cylinder of diameter is documented. A careful examination and analysis of …

Flow past a circular cylinder with multiple small control rods is studied by numerical
simulation for Re D ranging from 1161.3 to 6387.1. The Reynolds-Averaged-Navier–Stokes …

A new converter consisting of an elastically mounted circular cylinder and a free-to-rate
pentagram impeller is proposed to harness hydrokinetic energy from water currents. The …

A new converter consisting of a circular cylinder on an end-spring is proposed to harness
hydrokinetic power from water flow and tides. Two cylindrical rods with a small diameter are …

Studies on the flow-induced vibration (FIV) of tandem unequal-diameter flexible cylinders in
a broad gap ratio range are scarce. To reveal the effect of the gap ratio on and characterize …

An isolated two-dimensional circular cylinder with two linear degrees of freedom, parallel
and perpendicular to the free-stream direction, and owning a nonlinear energy sink (NES) is …

Rotating small control rods in the near wake of a circular cylinder is a combination of both
passive and active control techniques. The effect of rotation direction of control rods on …

Two-dimensional numerical computations are carried out for two rigidly connected cylinders
of unequal sizes undergoing vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) perpendicular to the free …

The vortex induced vibration response of a riser attached by a free-to-rotate impeller and the
rotation response of the impeller are investigated numerically by computational fluid …
