For this reason, the distance between structures greatly influences changes in flow patterns around the downstream cylinder structures, so that the response characteristics of structures can be altered correspondingly. The purpose of this study is to identify the basic in-line oscillation characteristics of two square cylinders in a tandem arrangement. Based on the supposition of actual structures, spring-supported tests, with both square cylinders elastically suspended, were conducted. Not only the distance between the two cylinders but also the aspect ratio, was also chosen as the parameters. Because it was found by past researches that the in-line oscillation characteristics of single cylinder depends on the aspect ratio, it was thought to be important to confirm it by two cylinders. Furthermore, flow visualization tests were performed by forced-oscillating two cylinders for consideration from the results of the spring-supported test., 9th International Symposium on Fluid-Structure Interactions, Flow-Sound Interactions, Flow-Induced Vibration & Noise (FIV2018: FSI2 & FIV+N.), July 8-11, 2018, Toronto, Ontario, Canada}, publisher = {FIV2018: FSI2 & FIV+N.}, title = {Effects of Aspect Ratio and Distance between Two Square Cylinders in a Tandem Arrangement on In-Line Oscillation Characteristics}, year = {2018}, yomi = {マツダ, カズトシ} }
