This paper studies the aeroelastic energy transfer from an advecting Lamb dipole to a
flexible cantilever. The cantilever is initially placed either along or against the dipole's
advection direction with various lateral distances. As the dipole moves towards the
cantilever, they interact and exchange the energy. Such a fluid–structure interaction problem
is numerically solved at a low Reynolds number of 200 using a lattice Boltzmann method
based numerical framework. The simulation results confirm that, when the lateral distance is …
