Abstract

A cylinder in a steady current beneath a free surface is subjected to oscillations in the streamwise direction. Techniques of high-image-density particle image velocimetry and instantaneous force measurement provide the relationship between the instantaneous, global flow patterns and the unsteady loading on the cylinder.
