Fluid-induced flag vibrations provide unattended, efficient, low-cost, and scalable solutions
for energy harvesting to power distributed wireless sensor nodes, heat transfer …

The combination of flow-induced vibration and pulsating flow has a greater potential to
enhance heat transfer. This study aims to investigate the effect of flow-induced vibration …

The dynamics of a hyperelastic splitter plate interacting with the laminar wake flow of a
circular cylinder is investigated numerically at a Reynolds number of 80. By decreasing the …

Flow-induced vibration (FIV) of a flexible plate located in the wake of a rigid circular cylinder
is investigated numerically in this study. Computations are performed at two Reynolds …

Zinc oxide nanorods synthesized via a wet chemical approach were used to fabricate an
ultra-flexible flutter-piezoelectric nanogenerator (UF-PENG). The UF-PENG has …

In response to the advantages of compactness and high efficiency of spiral elastic tube heat
exchanger and its easy-to-vibrate characteristics, this study aims to further improve its heat …

The paper addresses the simulation of turbulent wind gusts hitting rigid and flexible
structures. The purpose is to show that such kind of complex fluid–structure interaction (FSI) …

The present paper is the numerical counterpart of a recently published experimental
investigation by Wood et al.(2018). Both studies aim at the investigation of instantaneous …

Piezoelectric energy harvesters can scavenge energy from their ambient environment in
order to power low-consumption electronic devices. The last two decades have seen a …

Fins or fairings are typically streamlined structures employed to reduce the vortex-induced
unsteady forces acting on a bluff body by preventing shear layer roll-up in the near-wake …
