Local Buckling Response of Pipe
Onshore and offshore pipe systems may be subject to loading events that result in
mechanical response exceeding the material strength. There are technical and economic
incentives for developing non-conventional, higher strength materials for use in long
distance, large diameter and high pressure transmission pipeline systems. There exists
uncertainty on the key factors influencing the mechanical response of these materials in
pipe systems subject to large deformation loading events. This study will develop an
analytical tool that can be used to assess the pipe mechanical integrity. Functional
relationships will be developed to characterize the pipe strength and deformation
resistance that can be used by design engineering to develop practical and economic
solutions.
