Experimental Investigation of Flow-Induced Motion and Energy Conversion of a T-Section Prism

Flow-induced motion (FIM) performs well in energy conversion but has been barely investigated, particularly for prisms with sharp sections. Previous studies have proven that T-section prisms that undergo galloping branches with high amplitude are beneficial to energy conversions. The FIM experimenta...
