Journal ArticleDOI
Vortex shedding suppression and wake control: A review
TL;DR: In this article, a survey of existing studies on different methods of controlling the wake destructive behavior and suppression of vortex shedding behind bluff bodies are discussed, including the very recent developments, and the effectiveness of each technique on the drag reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the study of vortex-induced vibration of a cylinder with helical strakes
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of helical strakes on suppression of vortex-induced Vibrations (VIV) has been studied extensively, but the mechanism of VIV mitigation using helical Strakes is much less well documented in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using pipe-in-pipe systems for subsea pipeline vibration control
Kaiming Bi,Hong Hao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a pipe-in-pipe (PIP) system is proposed to mitigate seismic induced vibration of a subsea pipeline with a free span through numerical simulations by examining the seismic responses of both the traditional and proposed PIP systems based on the detailed three dimensional (3D) numerical analyses.

Flow-Induced Vibration
R. D. Blevins,H. Saunders +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on applications for offshore platforms and piping; wind-induced vibration of buildings, bridges, and towers; and acoustic and mechanical vibration of heat exchangers, power lines, and process ducting.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mechanics of the formation region of vortices behind bluff bodies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the characteristic lengths of the oscillating wakes of bluff bodies and concluded that these are equivalent at high Reynolds number, leading to the conclusion that there are two simultaneous characteristic lengths; the scale of the formation region and the width to which the free shear layers diffuse.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the formation and suppression of vortex 'shedding' at low reynolds numbers
TL;DR: In this paper, it is argued that the presence of the secondary cylinder has the effect of altering the local stability of the flow by smearing and diffusing concentrated vorticity in the shear layers behind the body.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review and classification of various aerodynamic and hydrodynamic means for suppressing vortex shedding
TL;DR: A wide variety of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic means for suppressing vortex shedding is classified into three categories in accordance with the phenomenological mechanism of vortex shedding as mentioned in this paper, i.e., surface protrusions, which affect separation lines and/or separated shear layers, etc.
