Experimental investigation of the aeroelastic instability of bluff two-dimensional cylinders
Aerodynamically bluff elastic structures such as suspension bridges and industrial smokestacks have been observed to vibrate violently in the presence of a low speed wind. Although a number of theories such as Den Hartog's quasi-steady instability criterion and the vortex resonance theory have...
