dc.descriptionThis article submitted to the APS-DFD 2008 conference, accompanies the fluid dynamics video depicting the various orientational dynamics of a hinged cylinder suspended in a flow tank. The different behaviors displayed by the cylinder range from steady orientation to periodic oscillation and even autorotation. We illustrate these features using a phase diagram which captures the observed phenomena as a function of Reynolds number and reduced inertia. A hydrogen bubble flow visualization technique is also used to show vortex shedding structure in the cylinder's wake which results in these oscillations.
