An analytical model of the ovalling oscillations of clamped-free and clamped-clamped cylindrical shells in cross-flow

Wind-structure interaction simulations of ovalling vibrations in silo groups

“…The results were in great qualitative but unsatisfactory quantitative agreement with experiments and empirical input had to be introduced in the models to improve the reliability of the predictions. Later simplifications by Mazouzi et al [161] and Laneville and Mazouzi [138] yielded a semi-empirical model that significantly improved the agreement with experiments. The main merit of this model was the introduction of a very simple algebraic expression for predicting the ovalling threshold flow velocity and the identification of the critical mode (m, n) for ovalling as well as the sequence of ovalling modes that follow.…”
