Mechanics of Offshore Pipelines: Volume II:Buckle Propagation and Arrest

For pipeline engineers, buckling is a prominent and expensive challenge and to understand the factors that cause buckling as well as ways to fix it can be difficult to determine. Mechanics of Offshore Pipelines: Volume II: Buckle Propagation and Arrest takes a deeper dive and explains various aspects of buckle propagation, including inspection, installation of key equipment, maintenance, and mitigation of this common engineering challenge using arrestors. Topics also include design recommendations for buckle propagation avoidance, manufacturer guides to prevent buckling, a review of the application of arrestors to apply for pipe buckling propagation, and explanation on how to extend the service life of the pipes which are most vulnerable to buckling. Rounding out with case studies and supportive experimental data, Mechanics of Offshore Pipelines Volume II: Buckle Propagation and Arrest explains all the detailed elements and practical solutions to buckling propagation for today's offshore pipeline projects. Understand the severity of pipeline buckling, its factors, and causesLearn to assess propagation pressures and collapse pressure for risk of pipe failure through practical examples and case studiesStay up to date with current standard approaches on how to identify pipe failures due to buckling propagation and how to adopt the most optimized arrestor type INDICE: 1.
