Low-frequency oscillations in flow past an inclined prolate spheroid
Strandenes, Håkon; Jiang, Fengjian; Pettersen, Bjørnar; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We analyse the forces on a 45∘ inclined 6:1 prolate spheroid at Reynolds number ReD = 8000. In contrast to flow at lower Reynolds numbers previously investigated, we now find a strong oscillatory behaviour in the global ... -
Motion analysis of Semi-Submersible
