Submarine pipeline buckling—imperfection studies
Abstract In-service buckling of submarine pipelines can occur due to the institution of axial compressive forces caused by the constrained expansions set up by thermal and internal pressure actions. Previous attempts at modelling the appropriate behaviour have been based on idealised or perfect pipelines; further, such analyses have also employed fully mobilised friction forces. Herein presented is a set of analyses which incorporate structural imperfections and deformation-dependent axial friction resistance. Not only do these features enable a more rational interpretation of submarine pipeline buckling behaviour to be established, but, in addition, an inherent limitation existing in the previous mathematical modelling of the vertical buckling mode is elucidated and overcome.
