Numerical study of vibrations of a vertical tension riser excited at the top end

This paper presents numerical simulations of vortex-induced vibrations of a vertical riser which is sinusoidally excited at its top end in both one and two directions in still water. A computational fluid dynamics method based on the strip theory is used. The riser's responses to both top-end a...
