Scope of the Conference
BBVIV-7 will focus on aspects of the dynamics of vortex structures found in the wakes of fixed and oscillating bluff bodies, including vortices resulting from shear layer instability, or near- and far-wake instabilities. Experimental, computational and analytical studies will be presented on topics such as the following (not exhaustive) :
- Dynamics of long flexible cylinders
- Energy harvesting from oscillating bluff bodies
- Wake development behind wind turbines
- Wakes in stratified flows
- Vortex dynamics of swimming and propulsion
- Bodies impinging on surfaces
- Wake interference between multiple bodies
- Active and passive control of wakes
- Aspects of vortex-induced vibration of bluff bodies
- Vortex-induced vibrations at very high Reynolds numbers
- Vortex-induced noise due to bluff bodies
- Rising and falling bodies in a fluid
- Controlled vibration of bluff bodies
- Vehicle aerodynamics
- Aerodynamics of airfoils at large angles of attack
- The 3-D structure of wakes from nominally two-dimensional bluff bodies
- Mode changes in the wakes of circular cylinders
- Bodies in unsteady/oscillatory flows
- Wakes in shallow water flows
- Relation between wake structure and the force experienced by a bluff body
