Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The passive oscillations of flexible filaments in a flowing soap film were investigated to learn the serial interaction between them. When arranged in tandem, the downstream filament flaps at the same frequency as that of the upstream one, but with a larger amplitude, whereas the upstream one is almost unaffected compared to the single filament case. The data analysis shows the downstream filament indeed extracts energy from the vortex street and receives greater force than the upstream one or a single filament in a uniform flow. |
