The finite volume method, based on the dynamic mesh method, is used to investigate the transient viscous incompressible flow around an impulsively and translationally started cylinder with strips. The strips of different shapes are installed at different locations on the surface of the cylinder. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of the locations and shapes of strips on the flow caused by boundary motion. The present solutions agree well with the experimental results reported in literature. Six placement angles of strips were selected: 0°, 20°, 60°, 90°, 120° and 150°. The development of wake shows some new phenomena with different strip locations, and the significant difference appears at α = 90°. The vortex intensity is much larger than that of other locations. On the other hand, four shapes of strips were selected: arc, triangle, rectangle and trapezoid. The rectangular strips had the greatest influence on the drag coefficient and the maximum of the drag coefficient increased from 0.4 to 2.8, compared with the smooth cylinder. The maximum of negative velocity had the most significant change when the shape of strip is arc, increasing by 34% compared with the smooth cylinder, at T = 3.
