This investigation was motivated by the desire to inform the design of passive metamaterials for flow control wherein spectral scales of structural dynamics are matched with those of fluid instabilities. To that end, the interaction between the periodic vortex shedding in the wake of a cylinder and a surface vibrating at equivalent or near-equivalent frequencies of this flow instability was examined. Wind tunnel experiments at Reynolds numbers ranging from Re = 1.3 × 10^4 to Re = 3.7 × 10^4 were conducted to evaluate wall pressure and flow field characteristics in the wake of a circular cylinder located near a vibrating wall section. By actively controlling the surface vibration, the effects of the vibration frequency and amplitude on vortex shedding behavior were studied. Other parameters of interest to the fluid-structure coupling were also examined including the proximity of the vibrating surface to the cylinder and the freestream conditions. It was determined that through active excitation of the vibrating surface, the vortex shedding behavior could be biased to phase-lock with the surface motion. This phase-locking effect was facilitated by the proximity of the excitation frequency to the mean shedding frequency combined with high displacement amplitude to produce sufficient spectral power in relation to the baseline vortex shedding spectral power. Additionally, it was determined that physical proximity of the vibrating surface to the source of the instability (in this case, the underside of the cylinder), along with test conditions at lower Reynolds numbers resulted in greater phase-locking authority. The phase-locking phenomenon was found to be correlated to a subtle increase in overall circulation in the near-wake, suggesting a sustainment of circulation due to surface vibration.
