A Finite Element Analysis of Lateral Buckling of Tensile Armor Layers of Flexible Pipes Considering Machining Geometry Defects

The tensile armor layer plays a crucial role in offshore flexible pipelines, primarily bearing axial tensile loads. However, during installation and operation, it may experience compressive forces, leading to a risk of lateral buckling, which is further intensified by manufacturing deviations in the...
