The proximity interference and the vortex dislocation are fundamental fluid dynamic features
that determine a wake pattern of dual-step circular cylinders in a side-by-side arrangement …

In the present study, we investigate the turbulent threedimensional flow around a stepped
cylinder, namely two cylinders of different diameters joint at one extremity. We perform a …

The three-dimensional flow development around the circular finned cylinders is investigated
numerically. Three finned cylinders with constant fin pitch (p), fin thickness (t), and effective …

A dual-step cylinder is a canonical geometry commonly encountered in many practical flows.
It consists of a large diameter cylinder (. The flow evolution and structural loading are …
