Marine fouling quickly covers the submerged surfaces of the man-made structures and
affects the flow regime around them. Many important studies have already been conducted …

This paper presents numerical investigations into the dynamics of a rigid cylinder, mounted
on elastic supports fitted with piezoelectric harvesters and subjected to the Vortex-Induced …

Abstract Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) experiments were carried out with yawed cylinders.
The purpose was to investigate the validity of the Independence Principle (IP) for properly …

Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is a self-excited and self-limited flow-induced vibration
phenomenon of importance for both the academic and the technological communities …

A novel concept of utilizing the kinetic energy from ocean currents/wind by means of internal
resonance is proposed to address the increasing global energy demand by generating …

An experimental investigation of concomitant Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) and top-motion
excitation with a long and vertical flexible cylinder is presented. Underwater optical …

A unidirectional three-mode reduced-order model (ROM) for the lateral motion of a slender
and immersed rod subjected to harmonic and axial top motion was derived from the …

This paper presents a numerical investigation on the use of a rotative non-linear vibration
absorber (NVA) as a passive suppressor for the vortex-induced vibrations phenomenon …

In this study, a partially submerged vertical cylinder is moved at constant velocity through
water, which is initially at rest. During the motion, the wake behind the cylinder induces free …

A phenomenological model and analytical–numerical approach to systematically
characterize variable hydrodynamic coefficients and maximum achievable responses in two …
