A Critical Review of the Intrinsic Nature of Vortex Induced Vibrations
Author: Turgut Sarpkaya
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Vibration
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
This is a concise and comprehensive review of the progress made during the past two decades on vortex induced vibration (VIV) of mostly circular cylindrical structures subjected to steady uniform flow. The critical elements of the evolution of the ideas, theoretical insights, experimental methods, and numerical models are traced systematically; the strengths and weaknesses of the current state of the understanding of the complex fluid/structure interaction are discussed in some detail. Finally, some suggestions are made for further research on VIV. The organization of the paper is given at the end of the next section.

Structure Vibration: Vibration Mitigation Materials and Structures
Author: Zhao-Dong Xu
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2889632121
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
Vibration is a common phenomenon when a structure is exposed to one or multiple mechanical or environmental actions, always at great cost to lives and to the economy. In order to reduce the adverse impact of vibration, vibration mitigation materials and structures have recently been at the center of attention. This book “Structure Vibration: Vibration Mitigation Materials and Structures” as the tip of the iceberg, provides a window to let people know about the flourishing of this young field. Twelve original research papers and one review paper have been included in this book to represent the recent development of vibration mitigation technology. The vibration mitigation material manufacture process, testing, analysis, and application have completely thoroughly studied. We wish more cutting-edge achievements will arise to benefit mankind and continually promote the development of vibration mitigation materials and structures.
