Abstract

An experimental investigations into the wave forces acting on the vortex-excited vibrating vertical circular cylinder in regular waves have been performed with emphasis being placed on the amplification of the wave forces caused by the fluid-structure interaction. The cylinder is vibrating only in the transverse, cross-flow, direction by means of the restriction of the vibration of the in-line direction. The results indicate that the existence of amplification of the lift forces acting on the vortex-excited vibrating cylinder in comparison with the stationary cylinder is a function of the ratio of wave frequency fw to the natural frequency of the cylinder in water fnw and Keulegan-Carpenter number at still water level CKC. The in-line forces are also amplified in the range of CKC where large amplitude of oscillation in the transverse direction occurs.
