Abstract:Till now, a large number studies on vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of flexible cylinders have been performed, but the in line (IL)-cross flow (CF) coupled VIV still needs to study further. Here, a towing tank test of VIVs of a circular cylinder was designed. The aspect ratio (length/diameter) of the cylinder model was 195.5 and its mass ratio was 1.82. With this cylinder model, the coupling effect between IL and CF VIVs was analyzed. The structural vibration was measured by means of strain gages and the modal analysis method was used to analyze the test data. It was shown that the coupling phenomenon between IL-VIV and CF-VIV is very obvious; the trajectories of different measured points have many complex forms, such as, “8-shape”, “inverted tear drop” and “mouth-shape”.
