Forced oscillation of a mildly nonuniform cylinder generates patterns of vorticity concentrations oriented orthogonally to its axis. These complex, but ordered, patterns are repeatable at subharmonics of the cylinder oscillation frequency; they therefore provide a means of identifying the first and second period-doubled states of the wake response.
