Vortex-induced vibration of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder: A comparison of wind tunnel sectional model tests and computational simulations (2018)
Journal Article
Nguyen, D. T., Hargreaves, D. M., & Owen, J. S. (2018). Vortex-induced vibration of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder: A comparison of wind tunnel sectional model tests and computational simulations. Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 175, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jweia.2018.01.029

Considered to be representative of a generic bridge deck geometry and characterised by a highly unsteady flow field, the 5:1 rectangular cylinder has been the main case study in a number of studies including the “Benchmark on the Aerodynamics of a R...

Computational studies on pressure distribution around a bending 5:1 rectangular cylinder (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Nguyen, D. T., Hargreaves, D., & Owen, J. (2016). Computational studies on pressure distribution around a bending 5:1 rectangular cylinder.

This paper describes the development and testing of a numerical model, based around the Large Eddy Simulation model, of a flexible 5:1 rectangular cylinder. We report on the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of the bending cylinder, which is an analogue...

Wind tunnel studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular cylinder (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Nguyen, D. T., Owen, J., & Hargreaves, D. (2016). Wind tunnel studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular cylinder.

In this paper, a wind tunnel study is described focusing on analysing the pressure distribution and correlation around both static and dynamic 5:1 rectangular cylinders in smooth and turbulent flow. Results from the static tests highlighted the signi... Read More about Wind tunnel studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular cylinder.

Computational studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular section in turbulent flow (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Nguyen, D. T., Hargreaves, D., & Owen, J. (2015). Computational studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular section in turbulent flow.

This paper presents a numerical method based on a LES approach to modelling the unsteady flow around and the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder in the smooth and turbulent flow. A fluid-structure interaction algorithm was al... Read More about Computational studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular section in turbulent flow.
