The efficiency of wind energy production on a relatively small scale can be enhanced without relying on conventional turbine ...

"A 'sweet spot' where power generation is maximized against structural strength." Researchers make groundbreaking discovery ...

Vortex-induced vibration (VIV): Oscillatory motion generated when the periodic shedding of vortices from a structure interacts with its natural frequency. Damping: ...

A white paper by Emerson details options to minimize the impacts of vortex-inducted vibration (VIV). Emerson focuses on advantages with the new design Rosemount Twisted Square thermowell.

How Do Vortex-Induced Vibration Suppression Devices Work? In the offshore subsea environment, weather disruptions and changes in the oceanic environment are common considerations for operators.

Eva Erickson was the second-place finisher on “Survivor” and the first openly autistic person to compete on the popular ...

Prototypes of the device — known as Vortex Induced Vibrations Aquatic Clean Energy — are essentially round cylinders a few inches across suspended in water on a spring. The vortices generated ...

The same mesh simulated the steam generator at both its 100% and 80% rated capacity to investigate possible vibration causes. Both cases used a prescribed mass-flow boundary condition on top of ...

Michael Bernitsas, professor of naval architecture and chief executive officer of Vortex Hydro Energy, says his device -VIVACE, which stands for Vortex Induced Vibration for Aquatic Clean Energy – ...

Fluid flow across a flexible or elastically mounted structure causes vibrations due to vortex shedding and other similar instabilities, like galloping. The flow-induced vibrations (FIV) are ...
