Vortex-induced vibration of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder: new computational and mathematical modelling approaches

As a the limit-cycle oscillation, vortex-induced vibration (VIV) does not cause catastrophic failure but it can lead to fatigue in long and slender structures and structural elements, especially for long span bridges. Assessing this behaviour during the design stage is therefore very important to en...
