UDF for free vibration of cylinder
 

Hi all,

I am trying to simulate wind induced free vibration of cylinder.

Does anyone know how to write a UDF for vibrating cylinder in the vertical direction?

I got a reference paper which is "CFD design of a generic controller for vortex-induced resonance"

The author used UDF for moving boundary of cylinder but I have no idea how to write a UDF for VIV problem.

Very thank you for any advises or help.

Thanks

Dear colopolo,

Hi Niaz,

sorry, I didn't do UFD any more, I'm doing something else now. Maybe, some body else could help you.

All the best
