Abstract: We experimentally study the dynamics and strength of vortices shed from a NACA 0012 wing undergoing sinusoidal pitching in quiescent water. We characterize the temporal evolution of the vortex trajectory and circulation over a range of pitching frequencies, amplitudes and pivot locations. By employing a physics-based force and moment partitioning method (FMPM), we estimate the vortex-induced aerodynamic moment from the velocity fields measured using particle image velocimetry. The vortex circulation, formation time and vorticity-induced moment are shown to follow scaling laws based on the feeding shear-layer velocity. The vortex dynamics, together with the spatial distribution of the vorticity-induced moment, provide quantitative explanations for the nonlinear behaviors observed in the fluid damping (Zhu et al. in J Fluid Mech, 923:R2, 2021). The FMPM-estimated moment and damping are shown to match well in trend with direct force measurements, despite a discrepancy in magnitude. Our results demonstrate the powerful capability of the FMPM in dissecting experimental flow field data and providing valuable insights into the underlying flow physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
