Flow-Induced Vibration: Fluid-Structure Interaction and Modeling

This book presents a comprehensive study of fluid-structure interaction and flow-induced vibration phenomena in engineering systems. It integrates fundamental concepts of fluid mechanics and structural dynamics with advanced topics such as vortex-induced vibrations, aeroelasticity, and coupled system modeling. The work covers analytical formulations, numerical simulation methods including computational fluid dynamics and finite element techniques, as well as experimental investigation approaches. Practical engineering applications are explored in fields such as aerospace, offshore structures, heat exchangers, civil engineering, and renewable energy systems. Special emphasis is placed on coupling mechanisms, instability analysis, and vibration control strategies. The book also addresses modern developments including nonlinear interactions, turbulence effects, multiphase flows, and emerging techniques such as reduced-order modeling and artificial intelligence. Designed for graduate students, researchers, and engineers, this work provides both theoretical foundations and practical insights for understanding and solving complex fluid-structure interaction problems.
