Does More Tension Reduce VIV?

In this paper it is shown that for very long risers in sheared flow there is a surprising outcome—the VIV response amplitude in the power-in region does not depend at all on the amount of damping in the power out region, as long as it is sufficient to prevent waves from reflecting at the boundary an...
