| Abstract | Transition from local complexity to global spatio-temporal dynamics in a two dimensional array of fluid-elastic oscillators is examined experimentally with an apparatus comprising 90–1000 cantilevered rods in a wind tunnel. Wave-like behavior is observed which may be related to soliton solutions in nonlinear arrays of nonlinear oscillators. The 90 to 1000 steel and polycarbonate rods have gap ratios ranging from 1.0 to 2.5. As the Reynolds number (based on rod diameter) increases from 200 to 900, a pattern with characteristics of spatio-temporal chaos emerges in global behavior of the elastic-rod array. There are local and global patterns. Local patterns comprise transient rest, linear motion, and elliptical motion. In 90-rod experiments, a cluster-pattern entropy measure based on these three patterns is introduced as a quantitative measure of local complexity. No significant dynamics appear below a threshold wind velocity. Video images reveal that, at first, each rod moves individually; then clusters consisting of several rods emerge. Finally, global wave-like motion occurs at higher flow velocities. Spatial patterns in rod-density distribution appear as more rods impact with their nearest neighbors. Furthermore, these collective nonlinear motions of rods are observed and categorized into several global modes. Using accelerometer data, the rod impact rate versus flow velocity shows a power-law scaling relation. This phenomenon may have application to plant-wind dynamics and damage as well as heat exchangers in energy systems. This experiment may also be a two dimensional analog of impact dynamics of granular materials in a flow. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
