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.

On the applicability of 2D URANS and SST k-? turbulence model to the fluid-structure interaction of rectangular cylinders (2015)
Journal Article
Nieto, F., Hargreaves, D., Owen, J. S., & Hernández, S. (in press). On the applicability of 2D URANS and SST k-ω turbulence model to the fluid-structure interaction of rectangular cylinders. Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1080/19942060.2015.1004817

In this work the practical applicability of a 2D URANS approach adopting a block structured mesh and Menter's SST k-? turbulence model in fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems is studied using as a test case a ratio B/H = 4 rectangular cylinder....
