Lock-in
A cylinder is said to be locked in when the frequency of
oscillation is equal to the frequency of vortex shedding. In this
region the largest amplitude oscillations occur.

Drag Amplification
VIV tends to increase the effective drag coefficient. This increase
has been investigated experimentally.

their motion is not spanwise

Wall Proximity
e + d/2
At e/d > 1 the wall effects are reduced.
Cd, Cm increase as e/d < 0.5
Vortex shedding is significantly effected by the wall presence.
In the absence of viscosity these effects are effectively non-existent.

Galloping is a result of a wake instability.
