Simulation, Modeling, and Characterization of the Wakes of Fixed and Moving Cylinders
The first goal of this work was to develop models based on nonlinear ordinary-differential equations or nonlinear algebraic equations, which produce the lift and drag coefficients on a cylinder or a cylinder-like structure. We introduced an improved wake oscillator for the lift, which combines the v...
