... above a circle-cylinder it is shown that giving small symmetric displacements from its equilibrium position to a vortex pair positioned near the circle-cylinder, periodic oscillations set in. Expressions for closed orbits and their periods are obtained. For the large amplitude case the vortex trajectories are calculated numerically. For a circle-cylinder with strakes the vortex motions may ... for the flutter speed. The analytical results are compared with the classical waving flag solution and with results from wind-tunnel experiments. The classical propeller theory of Theodorsen prov...
