TY - JOUR TI - Vortex shedding patterns in flow past inline oscillating elliptical cylinders AU - Huang Li-Zhong AU - Nie De-Ming JN - Thermal Science PY - 2012 VL - 16 IS - 5 SP - 1395 EP - 1399 PT - Article AB - Vortex shedding patterns in flow past inline oscillating elliptical cylinder are simulated by lattice Boltzmann and direct forcing/fictitious domain method which is validated by finite volume method when this cylinder is fixed. The modes of vortex shedding are analyzed in detail by changing the amplitude and the frequency of oscillation by using the first method in this paper.
