This project presents an experimental work on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a short rigid cylinder to obtain its dynamic responses in cross-flow directions with different cylinder surface roughness. In order to enable the rigid cylinder to suspend and vibrate freely upon excitation of wind speed...
