Its nonlinear hydrodynamic effects on the coupled wake and structure oscillators are investigated. A comparison between the coupled systems with the linear and nonlinear fluid dampings and experiments shows that the NFD model can well describe response characteristics, such as the amplification of body displacement at lock-in and frequency lock-in, both at high and low mass ratios. Particularly, the predicted peak amplitude of the body in the Griffin plot is in good agreement with experimental data and empirical equation, indicating the significant effect of the NFD on the structure motion.展开更多
