[Experimental and numerical investigation of fluid-particle-interactions in water].

For the development of improved sediment transport models, the basic understanding of the interaction between the solid particle and the moving fluid (water) is important. In this article, current developments in the field of fluid-particle interaction are presented based on two research articles by Gold et al. (2023) and Worf et al. (2022). One presented in this article uses state of the art measurement methods to investigate the flow around spheres of different densities that oscillate in initially resting body of water. For the spherical pendulum a similar vortex shedding characteristic was observed for all investigated fluid density ratios ($m^{*}={\rho }_S/{\rho }_F=1.14,14.95$, density ratio between solid and fluid). A new object tracking method (DOT) is also presented, which enables temporally and spatially resolved analysis of flow structures in the fluid field. The experimental results of Gold et al. (2023) show, that vortex shedding occurs during the first period. This vortex propagates downward and eventually dissipates. Furthermore, a damping optimum of the spherical pendulum in the range of $m^{*}=2.50$ was observed. Additionally, an experiment with a cylindrical pendulum with $m^{\ast }=4.98$ was investigated numerically utilizing an immersed boundary method. The process of creation and separation up to the dissipation of a vortex ring was described. Furthermore, this investigation by Worf et al. (2022) described the creation of tip vortices. These were connected with the development of the three-dimensional flow and added mass coefficient.
