Time evolution of the in-line force on a single cylinder and two cylinders spaced by G/a = 4: (a) tandem circular cylinders (β = 0°) for H/h = 0.1; (b) side-by-side circular cylinders (β = 90°) for H/h = 0.1; (c) tandem circular cylinders (β = 0°) for H/h = 0.2; (d) side-by-side circular cylinders (β = 90°) for H/h = 0.2.
