  • Large displacement, high Reynolds number oscillating cylinder

    Creator:
    Chan, Yau Wai
    Abstract:
    Hydrodynamic forces on a cylinder oscillating horizontally underwater with its axis perpendicular to the motion were measured at the Oregon State University Wave Research Facility. The cylinder had an outer diameter of 12 inches and a length of 12 feet. For the data presented herein, the maximum displacement of the...

  • Hydrodynamic forces on a horizontal cylinder under waves and current

    Creator:
    Teng, Chung-chu
    Abstract:
    By assuming the linear superposition principle to be valid, the hydrodynamic forces on a horizontal cylinder under waves and current are examined. In this study, towing a cylinder in waves is used to simulate a cylinder under waves and current. The experimental technique is proved valid through theoretical considerations and...

  • Forces on a transverse circular cylinder in a steady uniform flow near a plane boundary

    Creator:
    Hafen, Blaine
    Abstract:
    An experimental study was conducted to determine the hydrodynamic forces on smooth and roughened circular cylinders as influenced by a nearby plane boundary. The ambient flow was perpendicular to the cylinder and parallel to the boundary. Measurements were taken in a water channel and a wind tunnel to obtain the...
