... of this analysis show that either a straight line or a circular steady trajectory is possible, depending on the magnitude of the surge force and the form of the damping model used to represent viscous drag, vortex shedding, and losses due to the surface wake generated by the vessel motion. However, the straight...

...Imran Akhtar; Ali H. Nayfeh Control of fluid-structure interaction is of practical importance from the perspective of wake modification and reduction of vortex-induced vibrations (VIVs). The aim of this study is to design a control to suppress vortex shedding. We perform a two-dimensional...
