Calculation Methods of the Local Structure Behavior of Unbonded Flexible Pipes

Abstract:

In this paper, the nonlinear relationship between the bending moment and curvature of non-bonded flexible pipes was studied. It was found that the relation was a function of internal and external pressure, axial force, and bending moment load. The model used in this paper took into consideration of the flexural, tensile and torsional strength of layers as well as the frictions between them. Symmetrical axial load was first applied, and then the bending load. Due to friction, the response of the unbonded flexible pipes is hysteretic to the loads. In conclusion, the response of unbonded flexible pipes are both related to its own structural properties and external loads.Coupling factors of different conditions should also be considered.
