The onset of vortex-induced vibrations of a flexible cylinder at large inclination angle

The onset of the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) regime of a flexible cylinder inclined at within a uniform current is studied by means of direct numerical simulations, at Reynolds number based on the body diameter and inflow velocity magnitude. A range of values of the reduced velocity, defined as t...
