Uplift resistance of buried submarine pipelines: comparison between centrifuge modelling and full-scale tests
A buried pipeline can buckle upwards if there is not enough resistance to movement. Both the uplift resistance (the maximum force per unit length) and the mobilisaion distance (the distance the pipeline has move before the maximum force is reached) are important in design. Tests on pipes in several soils were carried out at 1 g at full scale and in a centrifuge at 10 g and 1/10 scale. A compari...
متن کاملUplift Response of Strip Anchors in Sand Using Fem
The load displacement relationship of shallow rigid strip anchors embedded in sands and subjected to uplift pressures has been examined by using the finite element method. The soil medium is modeled as a linear elastic-perfect plastic material following Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion and an associated flow rule. The computed load displacement response is presented in non-dimensional form. The u...
متن کاملevaluation of cone penetration resistance in loose silty sand using calibration chamber
this paper highlights the effect of silt content on cone tip resistance in loose silty sand. in this study, twenty-seven cone penetration tests are performed in saturated silty sand samples with several different silt contents ranging from 10 to 50 percent. the samples are consolidated at three overburden stresses including 100, 200 and 300 kpa. it is shown that, as the silt content increases, ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Effect of Local Buckling and VIV Fatigue on Failure Probability of Subsea Pipelines in Iranian South Pars Gas Field
Free-span occurs normally in a pipeline at uneven seabed, dynamic seabed and pipeline crossing. Free spanning in pipeline causes Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) fatigue, fracture and bursting. In this paper, a pipeline located in South Pars Gas Field is assessed against local buckling and VIV fatigue using probability of failure theory based on the recommended methodology by Det Norske Veritas (...
متن کاملuplift response of buried pipes in saturated sand using finite element method
in this research a numerical analysis using plaxis program has been carried out to investigate the behavior of buried concrete box culverts different parameters including load types, loading locations, culvert dimensions, underlying soil specifications, and the coefficient of earth pressure- at- rest. for modeling purpose, patch loading of rtuck or military tank has been substituted to an equiv...
