Reynolds Number Effects on the Vortex-Induced Vibration of Flexible Marine Risers

This paper explores the Reynolds number dependence of the Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) of flexible marine risers. Emphasis is placed on revealing the trends that exist between the Strouhal number and the Reynolds number and between the dimensionless amplitude (A/D) and Reynolds number. Data is dra...
