Abstract

This paper is a comprehensive review of the experimental and numerical research conducted in the field of suppressing the Flow-Induced Vibrations (FIV) in the Marine Circular Cylinders (MCCs) structure under the Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI). The FIV phenomenon can be viewed with two different approaches, such as the useful and destructive approaches. In the useful approach, FIV can be used to generate renewable energy by maximizing this phenomenon in structures. While, in the destructive approach, the FIV is one of the most challenging offshore industries to evaluate the fatigue of the MCC structures. In this review paper, different passive suppression devices of the FIV, such as strake, spoiler, fairing, splitter plate, shroud, dimple, ribbon, bump, and traveling wave wall were investigated under the Motion-Induced Motion (VIM) and Vortex-Induced Vibrations (VIV) in the rigid and slender MCCs, respectively. Generally, the use of the FIV suppression devices prevents the interference of two shear layers on the sides of the MCC structures in the wake layer. Therefore, the FIV suppression devices cause the elimination of vortex shedding in the MCC’s wake, which leads to a significant reduction of the VIM, VIV, and fatigue damage of the MCC structures in the rigid and slender MCC.
