The Identification of Power-In Region in Vortex-Induced Vibration of Flexible Cylinders

This paper proposes a novel method to identify the power-in regions of long flexible cylinders subjected to vortex-induced vibration (VIV). It also attempts to address a practical problem: “Will a secondary power-in region appear after the primary power-in region is covered with suppression devices?...
