Real-life experiences with flow-induced vibration

A number of occurrences of flow-induced vibration in the power-generating industry are presented, many in nuclear plant where all incidents/problems have to be reported. Specifically, cases of (i) vortex-induced vibration (VIV), (ii) fluidelastic instability in cylinder arrays, (iii) axial and (iv)...

Description
Summary:A number of occurrences of flow-induced vibration in the power-generating industry are presented, many in nuclear plant where all incidents/problems have to be reported. Specifically, cases of (i) vortex-induced vibration (VIV), (ii) fluidelastic instability in cylinder arrays, (iii) axial and (iv) annular-flow-induced vibration, (v) leakage-flow instability and (vi) shell-type ovalling are discussed. For items (ii), (v) and (vi), a few words on the mechanisms underlying the vibration are provided.
