Large displacement numerical analysis of offshore pipe-soil interaction on clay

Abstract:

Offshore on-bottom pipelines are vulnerable to lateral buckling caused by thermal- and pressure-induced axial expansion. A cost-effective solution is to allow for the buckling to occur in a controlled manner rather than to prevent it. This design approach requires an accurate assessment of the soil resistance experienced by the pipe during large cyclic lateral displacements.
The sequential limit analysis (SLA) method has been developed to study soil-structure interaction problems involving...
