The proposed approach combines classical shell theory and the finite element method, making use of displacement functions derived from exact solutions of Sanders’ shell equilibrium equations for conical shells. The analysis of the shell-fluid interface involves leveraging the velocity potential, Bernoulli’s equation, and impermeability conditions to determine an explicit expression for fluid pressure. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first to compare the methods applied to ring-stiffened shells against other numerical and experimental findings. Our results on conical shells in various conditions, with and without ring stiffeners, are largely consistent with previous findings. This study also explores the influence of geometric parameters, stiffener quantity, cone angle, and applied boundary conditions on the natural frequency of fluid-loaded ring-stiffened conical shells. The paper concludes with a discussion of several useful implications for further research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140638386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Flow-induced vibrations are ensured in this novel configuration by the substantial area perpendicular to the flow and the bluff shape. The motions of the sheet can be divided into three modes depending on the trends of the oscillation amplitude and frequency with respect to the flow velocity. At low flow velocities, the sheet undergoes small-amplitude oscillations with a nearly constant frequency. Beyond a certain threshold of flow velocity, the amplitude increases rapidly while the frequency declines. The dimensionless critical flow velocity is almost independent of the ratio between the clamp distance and sheet length, as predicted by simple scaling analysis. As the flow velocity increases further, the amplitude becomes saturated, while the frequency becomes almost proportional to the flow velocity. The most notable features of the sheet are the temporal and spatial distributions of its bending energy. The bending energy exhibits negligible fluctuations over time, and despite changes in the flow velocity, the time-averaged bending energy remains almost constant. However, by dividing the sheet into front, center, and rear parts, significant variations in the bending energy are found, and these are intensified at higher flow velocities. The S-shaped sheet exhibits more pronounced variations in local bending energy at lower flow velocities compared with a snap-through sheet model clamped at both ends.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140554880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show how the response of a flexible sheet in the wake of a fixed cylinder, which is the result of the sheet’s interaction with the vortices that are shed at a frequency predicted by the Strouhal law can be changed to a “desired” response by forcing the upstream cylinder to rotate periodically. Large-amplitude oscillations at a frequency different from the Strouhal frequency can be imposed on the flexible sheet, and the sheet’s oscillations can be suppressed if the cylinder is forced to rotate at a higher frequency. The flexible sheet finds its way in between the vortices that are shed in the wake of the cylinder, and by controlling the frequency and location of the shed vortices in the wake of the cylinder, one can impose a desired motion on the sheet. Besides imposing a symmetric oscillatory response on the sheet, we show that asymmetric responses can be imposed on the sheet when an asymmetric waveform is used to force the upstream cylinder.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140540707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rectangular cylinder with cut corners significantly reduced both the aerodynamic force coefficients and the Kármán vortex shedding intensity.

We find that the idling tip-speed ratio of the turbine exceeds 5, which is much greater than that of a turbine operating in an open free stream. This proves the dominance of pulsatile flow through the gap between two hemispherical blades in torque generation. Widely varying the gap (i.e., the overlap ratio <em>O_R</em> of the Savonius turbine) reveals that a turbine with <em>O_R</em> = 30 % has the highest power coefficient.

The curved path could be concave (i.e., bent toward the incoming flow) or convex (i.e., bent away from the incoming flow). We consider different radii of curvature for both the concave and the convex paths and show that oscillations are observed for radii of curvature larger than one cylinder diameter. In general, we show that the oscillations are of larger amplitudes in the convex orientation, reaching angles of oscillations of up to 38° and normalized (with respect to the cylinder's diameter) amplitudes of oscillations in the transverse and inline directions of up to 1.1 and 0.35, respectively. The oscillations on the concave path are of smaller amplitudes, but last up to higher values of reduced velocities than those in the convex orientation. The shedding and oscillation frequencies increase with increasing reduced velocity for the concave orientation reaching values of around 1.8 times the system's natural frequency in water at the end of the lock-in range, while for the convex orientation, the frequencies stay close to the natural frequency and only jump from values slightly lower than the natural frequency to values slightly higher than the natural frequency when the oscillation amplitude drops from an upper branch to a lower branch in the VIV amplitude response. Two single vortices are observed in the wake when oscillation amplitudes are relatively low, and two pairs of vortices of different sizes are observed in the wake when amplitudes are relatively larger. When two pairs of vortices are observed, the cylinder carries two bound vortices with it during its transverse oscillations and sheds them in the form of a pair of vortices of different sizes at the end of each half cycle. In the cases with the largest amplitudes of oscillations, besides the vortices that are shed synchronized with the oscillation frequency, several smaller-size vortices are shed in the wake as the cylinder traverses its crossflow path. We relate the reason for observing larger amplitudes of oscillations on the convex path to the relative orientation of the fluctuating forces that are exerted on the cylinder due to the shedding of vortices in its wake with respect to its oscillation path.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluids and Structures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140327715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
