Abstract

DVM (Discrete Vortex Method) is a numerical scheme that handles discrete vortex particles to express continuous vorticity field. This scheme is proper to VIV (Vortex Induced Vibration) analysis because there is no need to generate field grids and VIV is caused by separated vorticity from the body. When DVM is applied to VIV analysis, there are some applicable schemes such as using vortex blobs, integral method for computing induced velocity, etc. In this study, the influences of these schemes are investigated and the practical scheme that is appropriate for VIV analysis is proposed.
