Abstract

“Vortex-induced vibration” (VIV) of a sprung cylinder is a familiar fluid-structure interaction phenomenon occurring over a wide range of flow Reynolds number (Re). From a dynamical systems perspective, at critical Reynolds number (Rec), the fixed point of the wake oscillator loses its stability resulting in limit-cycle oscillation, which is a well known supercritical Hopf bifurcation. In this paper, we discuss the relation between the critical Reynolds number (Rec) for the Hopf bifurcation and the stiffness of the cylinder for a sprung rigid circular cylinder. In addition, we introduce a rotational “nonlinear energy sink” (NES) into the system and study its effect on Rec in subcritical flow regime.
