Vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) are a critical aerodynamic phenomenon affecting the dynamic performance and structural integrity of long-span bridges. These oscillations arise when alternating ...
Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) encompasses the complex interplay between fluid flows and structures, where the dynamics of a fluid can induce oscillatory responses in structures and, reciprocally, ...
In the offshore subsea environment, weather disruptions and changes in the oceanic environment are common considerations for operators. Reducing the effects of such factors is key to keeping costs low ...
Fluid flow across a flexible or elastically mounted structure causes vibrations due to vortex shedding and other similar instabilities, like galloping. The flow-induced vibrations (FIV) are ...
Vivace is a new energy technology that gets its name from a phenomenon that engineers have been battling for 25 years. VIV (vortex induced vibrations) destroyed the Narrows Bridge in Washington State ...
Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) suppression devices are installed on slender offshore structures—drilling and production risers, steel catenary risers (SCRs), top-tensioned risers (TTRs), umbilicals, ...
