In this review, we present control methods for flow over a bluff body such as a circular
cylinder, a 2D bluff body with a blunt trailing edge, and a sphere. We introduce recent major …

The application of unsteady incompressible flow phenomenon over the bluff bodies has
received the attention of many researchers due to the rich and complex physics …

Porous coating on cylinders reduces the aerodynamic noise due to vortex shedding. A key
understanding of how porous media suppress vortex shedding is related to near-field …

The mechanism of suppression for the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of circular cylinder by
the helical wires is investigated using LES turbulence model. Numerical models for the free …

In this paper, the wake control of a circular cylinder by dual plates symmetrically attached at
the rear surface is numerically investigated within the laminar flow regime. The two flat …

Fluid-dynamic loads have a great influence on the design of many Civil Engineering
structures. In particular, circular sections are widely used in constructions, yet when it comes …

Variational multiscale large-eddy simulations (VMS–LES) of the flow around a circular
cylinder are carried out at different Reynolds numbers in the subcritical regime, viz. Re …

In this study, we introduce a novel arrangement consisting of two arc plates around a
cylinder with the privilege of improved fluid flow and noise control. The arc plates are placed …

Flow past a circular cylinder with smooth, grooved and dimpled surface (roughness
coefficient k/D= 0.05, where k is the depth of the grooves/dimples and D is the outer …

The present study investigates the effect that rough hydrophobic (or superhydrophobic)
surfaces have on the flow separation and subsequent vortex structures in a turbulent wake …
