Abstract:Pipe-in-pipe analyses of in-place SCR (Steel Catenary Riser) within pull-tube (PT) or pull-in analyses of SCR through PT are computationally complicated problems in offshore development in the application of SCR hanging off through PT from a platform such as Spar. In the past, those analyses have been done primarily using ABAQUS, an advanced nonlinear FEA commercial tool. A benchmark study of pipe-in-pipe analysis, i.e. SCR through PT, was conducted to compare the performance of ABAQUS and Flexcom, a package p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
