The wind-induced vibration of cables has been widely studied over the past decades
because of cables' many applications in cable-stayed, suspension, and tied-arched bridges …

Flow around a circular cylinder is governed by three transitions: in-the-near-wake, along the
free shear layers and along the boundary layers. Each transition is characterized by several …

The central shaft is an inseparable part of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). For small
turbines such as those typically used in urban environments, the shaft could operate in the …

The last decades have seen an increasing interest in cycling aerodynamics, with the design
of more aerodynamic bicycles and wearable equipment such as helmets and skinsuits and …

The flow around circular cylinders still is one of the challenges in fluid mechanics. Moreover,
it is of great interest for practical applications, such as wind loads on cylindrical structures …

Application of copper alloy netting in marine aquaculture has potential benefits associated
with reduced biofouling, improved cage volume stability, structural strength and protection …

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 …

Several studies have been performed in the last three decades to assess the impacts of
marine biofouling on offshore wind turbines (OWTs) substructures. Marine biofouling …

The use of porous materials is one of several approaches to passively control or minimize
the generation of flow noise. In order to investigate the possible reduction of noise from …

The work described is an experimental investigation of the flow around hemispheres and
hemisphere-cylinders immersed in three different turbulent boundary layers. The effect on …
