Abstract
An experimental investigation performed at moderate Reynolds numbers was set to study how a pair of tandem cylinders can be excited into flow-induced vibrations by different interference mechanisms as a function of longitudinal spacings varying from 2 to 10 diameters. Results showed that the downstream cylinder could develop vortex-induced vibration (VIV) caused by its own vortex shedding, wake-induced vibration (WIV) caused by a developed wake formed in the gap, and gap-flow-switching. A combination of these mechanisms appeared for cases under close proximity. For a specific spacing of 3 diameters, the vibration of the downstream cylinder was able to synchronize the vortex shedding from the upstream, fixed body. We call this mechanism “retro lock-in” since the vortex-formation process of a bluff body was governed by the dynamics of another body located further downstream.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Fluids and Structures serves as a focal point and a forum for the exchange of ideas, for the many kinds of specialists and practitioners concerned with fluid–structure interactions and the dynamics of systems related thereto, in any field. One of its aims is to foster the cross–fertilization of ideas, methods and techniques in the various disciplines involved.
The journal publishes papers that present original and significant contributions on all aspects of the mechanical interactions between fluids and solids, regardless of scale.
