Abstract: This paper presents a methodology for using a modulated process to model the lift forces induced on circular cylinders by an oscillating flow. The generalization of the existing quasi-steady ...

Abstract: This paper presents the modeling and analysis of a novel vibration suppression device. This reflector system exerts inertial forces, induced by tuned pendular motion, to control translational ...

Abstract: In dynamic analysis of constrained multibody systems (MBS), the computer simulation problem essentially reduces to finding a numerical solution to higher-index differential-algebraic equations (DAE). ...

Abstract: Results are presented from experiments investigating hydrodynamic forces induced on fixed circular cylinders by random oscillatory flows. The oscillatory flow was generated in a water tunnel and ...

Abstract: Experiments were conducted to study random hydrodynamic loading of smooth, rigidly mounted circular cylinders exposed to random oscillatory flow conditions. The experiments were conducted in a ...
