Suppression of vortex-induced vibration of a circular cylinder using suction-based flow control

WL Chen, DB Xin, F Xu, H Li, JP Ou, H Hu - Journal of Fluids and …, 2013 - Elsevier
In the present study, a flow control method is employed to mitigate vortex-induced vibration
(VIV) of a circular cylinder by using a suction flow method. The VIV of a circular cylinder was …

Destabilizing turbulence in pipe flow

J Kühnen, B Song, D Scarselli, NB Budanur, M Riedl… - Nature Physics, 2018 - nature.com
