Characterization, modeling and mitigation of vortex-induced vibration of slender cylinders
Slender cylindrical structural members have often been observed to vibrate at large amplitudes under wind excitation. Vortex-shedding was found to be one of the primary excitation mechanisms which manifests itself as distinct characteristics of the resultant problematic vibrations. The objectives …

Free Surface Penetration of Inverted Right Circular Cones at Low Froude Number
… for flat objects such as disks, then it does for slender objects such as cylinders. Intuitively it can be expected that a more slender body will have less drag and that the streamlined shape will not push the fluid out of it's way at impact to the same extent as a more blunt body, therefore …
