Oil and gas exploration is a sector which drives the global economy and currently
contributes significantly to global economic development. The safety of subsea pipelines is …

In order to release the axial compressive force resulting from high-temperature conditions,
sleepers or distributed buoyancy sections are usually installed along the route of the subsea …

In this study, we propose a Gaussian process-driven worst imperfection method to generate
simulated geometric imperfections and find the lower limit of buckling capability. First, we …

The stability problem of pipelines under high temperature and high pressure in terms of
lateral buckling has been largely concerned recently. Owing to the complex conditions …

The present research work focuses on obtaining the critical buckling temperature (ΔT cri) of
an offshore pipeline model from one-dimensional and three-dimensional finite element …

Unburied subsea pipelines are vulnerable to lateral buckling due to high temperature and
high pressure, which can be mitigated by inducing controlled lateral buckling through …

One of the major geological hazards that can cause harm to long-distance oil and gas
pipelines are water-induced disasters. These disasters are quite common and widespread …

The current design philosophy for submarine hulls, in the preliminary design stage,
generally considers as governing limit states material yielding along with various buckling …

In order to release the axial compressive force induced by high-temperature difference, the
residual curvature method is one of the promising buckle initiation methods to initiate …

Lateral buckling may occur for subsea pipelines operating under high-temperature
conditions and buckle initiation techniques are usually employed to trigger man-made …
