A comprehensive review of hydrokinetic energy converters based on alternating lift
technology (ALT) is provided. Emphasis is on nonlinear oscillators based on Flow Induced …

While it is known that rigid splitter plates play significant roles in flow control, the exact roles
of them in flow-induced vibration (FIV) have not been systematically investigated. This has …

Two-dimensional numerical simulations of flow-induced vibration (FIV) of a square cylinder
in laminar flow with a Reynolds number Re= 170 are carried out, and the influence of the …

The flow-induced vibration of square cylinders under flow is known to be caused by two
distinct mechanisms of interaction: vortex-induced vibrations and galloping. In the present …

The transverse flow-induced vibration of an elastically supported cylinder-plate assembly
(viz., a rigid splitter-plate attached to the downstream side of a circular cylinder) with a low …

The fluid-structure interaction mechanism of an assembly system, including a fixed upstream
cylinder and a transverse oscillating downstream cylinder with a rigid splitter plate, is …

A square cylinder with a V-shaped groove on the windward side in the piezoelectric
cantilever flow-induced vibration energy harvester (FIVEH) is presented to improve the …

Flow-induced vibrations (FIV) of an equilateral triangular prism are numerically studied
using the immersed boundary method in a parametric space of α= 0°–60° and U∗= U∕ fn …

Unstable interaction between shear layers that form in the wake of an isolated building
exposed to wind can drive natural pumping ventilation in windward and leeward facing …

With the rapid development of small and microelectronic devices, energy utilization from the
surrounding environment has been paid significant attention. This study aims to enhance the …
