内容简介：

In this talk, a few FSI problems will be studied with both computational and analytical methods. In particular, parametric instabilities will be studied with Bolotin’s Approach and Monodromy Matrix. Physical insights will be derived from the instability diagram and the transition points for buckling and flutter instabilities. Some suppression mechanisms are also presented for the reduction of flow-induced vibrations.
