After one decade of experimental investigation, the Vortex-Induced Motion–VIM
phenomenon deserves a comprehensive survey concerning the advances related to its …

An experimental study on Vortex-Induced Motion (VIM) of the semi-submersible platform
concept with four square columns is presented. Model tests were carried out to check the …

Aiming to complete the results presented before by Gonçalves et al.(2012d. Ocean Eng. 54,
150–169) the present work brings new experimental results on VIM of a semi-submersible …

The investigation of vortex-induced vibration on very short cylinders with two degrees of
freedom has drawn the attention of a large number of researchers. Some investigations on …

Experiments regarding vortex-induced vibration (VIV) on floating circular cylinders with low
aspect ratio were carried out in a recirculation water channel. The floating circular cylinders …

Fluid-structure interactions are essential to be evaluated in pipelines where the fluid
dynamics induces structural vibrations that need to be properly investigated for engineering …

A great deal of work has been developed on the spar and monocolumn vortex-induced
motion (VIM) issue. However, there are very few published works concerning VIM of semi …

Vortex-induced motion (VIM) is a specific way for naming the vortex-induced vibration (VIV)
acting on floating units. The VIM phenomenon can occur in monocolumn production, storage …

Flow-induced motion (FIM) is an important issue for deep-draft floating platforms, reducing
the fatigue life of mooring and riser systems. Tension leg platforms (TLPs) with a smaller …

An experimental investigation of the vortex-induced vibration phenomenon on a long semi-
immersed flexible cylinder in constant current profile were carried out at a recirculating water …
