Abstract:
      In conventional CFD method,dynamic mesh technique is always used in numerical simulation of flow past vibrating bodies,which would inevitably create a huge task of grid regeneration.To deal with this situation,Immersed Boundary Method (IBM),which can compute the moving boundary on the stable gird,is adopted in this paper to promote the calculation efficiency.The computation of flows around a harmonically oscillating square cylinder (Re=UD/v=103,constant oscillating amplitude,varying oscillation frequency) and a bridge section (Re=UB/v=7.5×103,varying oscillating frequency and amplitude) in transverse mode is carried out respectively to analyze theiraerodynamic characteristics.Preliminary research results indicate that the length of lock-in region is 0.06~0.2 when oscillating amplitude is fixed to 14% of the square cylinder's height.The vortex shedding of oscillating square cylinder moves back to stable condition beyond Stc=0.2.Mean drag coefficients of the oscillating bridge section under different oscillating amplitudes all reach maxmum values near the stable vortex shedding frequencies whereas mean lift coefficients of the oscillating bridge section all come back to zero at this point.
