...Michael J. Martin; Brian H. Houston The frequency response of a cylinder in a viscously damped fluid is a problem of fundamental engineering interest, with applications ranging from microsystems to offshore structures. The analytic solution for the drag in a vibrating cylinder in the laminar flow...

...Osama A. Marzouk We studied various characteristics of the flow-induced vibration (FIV) of a spring-mounted cylinder, and the fluctuating lift and drag forces exerted on the cylinder due to the periodic changes in the fluid motion and vortex structure. We compared two conditions, which represent...

..., the hydrodynamic interaction between the cilia-based actuators and fluid is modeled as a drag force that results in damping of the cilia motion. Our main contribution is to show that such damping effects cannot explain the substantial reduction in the resonant-vibrational frequency of the cilia actuator operating...
