“…Anchorage theory has figured prominently in many studies. Based on the structural theory of inclined plane reinforcement and elastic-plastic mechanics, Zhang L. et al [9] finished the anchoring device's structural design. On the design of anchoring blocks, material choice, anchorage depth between the anchorage blocks and the inner wall of the pipe, and contact stress, theoretical and simulation studies have been done.…”

Technology for recycling abandoned undersea pipelines is crucial for lowering the cost of installing new submarine pipelines, polluting the ocean less, and improving recycling efficiency. A popular area of study is how to lessen the harm that underwater pipeline recycling instruments do to the inner wall of the pipeline during recycling. In order to recover pipelines, this study examines the anchoring theory and damage process of submerged pipeline recovery equipment. The effect of the contact body’s diameter and radius of the rounded corner on the depth of the pressed-in pipeline and the slip distance is examined using the contact body structure optimization design approach of the underwater pipeline recovery tool, which is based on a multi-objective genetic algorithm. Dynamic simulations of the insertion mechanism as a whole are performed using the Adams simulation program to make sure that the optimized contact body can exert enough contact force on the pipeline’s inner wall. According to the optimization results, the ideal design parameters are D = 57 mm and R = 11.5 mm. While still satisfying the criteria, the improved contact body has higher stability.
