Galloping instability and control of a rigid pendulum in a flowing soap film
Résumé
A pendulum suspended in a fast flowing soap film may show sustained oscillations. The conditions necessary for self excited motion to occur are outlined: a flow velocity above a threshold value along with geometrical constraints. The role of vortex shedding is discussed, and the observed instability is shown to be well described by the galloping instability. Experimental results are supported by numerical simulations. Furthermore, we observe that the instability may be suppressed by attaching a long enough filament to the rear of the pendulum.
