Abstract: The von Karman vortex streets formed in the wakes of vibrating, flexible cables were studied using a hot-wire anemometer. All the experiments took place in the flow regime where the vibration ...

Abstract: Many types of marine structures are susceptible to vortex-excited oscillations. These include the risers and conductor tubes that are employed in offshore drilling and production, deep water ...

Abstract: The von Karman vortex streets formed in the wakes of vibrating, flexible cables were studied using hot wire anemometers. The experiments took place in or at the boundaries of the flow regime ...

Abstract: Laboratory measurements of the turbulent flow in a plane jet issuing at the free surface are reported and analyzed. Single point hot-film data were obtained for mean velocities and turbulent ...
