Flow visualization, particle image velocimetry and hot-film anemometry have been
employed to study the fluid flow around a circular cylinder near to a plane wall for Reynolds …

The drag and lift force are measured on circular cylinders fitted with end plates in a wind
tunnel. The gap between the cylinder and the wall, G, the thickness of the turbulent …

The flow about a circular cylinder placed centrally inside a channel is studied numerically
with an unstructured collocated grid finite volume method based on the primitive variable …

The paper summarizes the results of a laboratory study of the separate and combined effects
of bed proximity and large velocity gradients on the frequency of vortex shedding from …

Vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of an elastically supported circular cylinder (of diameter D)
undergoing a wall interference are investigated for a mass-damping ratio 0.31, Reynolds …

Large-eddy simulations (LES) are used to investigate the modifications of wake dynamics
and turbulence characteristics behind a circular cylinder placed near a wall for varying gap …

Experimental research has been carried out to study the influence of surface roughness on
transitions between the subcritical, critical supercritical and postcritical regimes around …

Experiments are reported on the flow past a square cylinder placed near a wall at Re=
22,000 (based on the cylinder diameter, D). Visualization studies were carried out for …

In this paper the influence of a wall on vortex shedding frequency, geometrical pattern, and
velocity field are investigated. Frequency measurements were carried out with three circular …

An experimental investigation for the measurement of the mean and fluctuating forces acting
on a circular cylinder in cross-flow, placed near a plane surface parallel to its axis, is …
