Synchronized vibrations of a circular cylinder in a water cross flow at supercritical Reynolds numbers were measured. Turbulence intensities were varied to investigate the effect of the Strouhal number on the synchronization range. Self-excited vibration in the drag direction due to symmetrical vortex shedding began only when the Strouhal number was about 0.29, at a reduced velocity of 1.1. The reduced velocities at the beginning of lock-in vibrations caused by Karman vortex shedding decreased from 1.5 to 1.1 in the drag direction and from 2.7 to 2.2 in the lift direction, as the Strouhal number increased from 0.29 to 0.48.
