The flexible pipe industry has been confronted with the potential threat of armour wires
lateral buckling for over two decades. Cyclic bending is recognized to play a significant role …

Palletized unit loads are composed of pallets, packages, and unit load stabilizers. The
interactions between components are significant for designing efficient and sustainable …

The present paper addresses the frictional effect on the circular armour wire lateral buckling
in an umbilical for wet annulus condition. A nonlinear static finite element model is …

The supply chain is made up of three key components: unit load stabilizers, packaging, and
pallets. Understanding the interactions between these components is critical so that unit …

The pressure armor layer of a flexible pipe is designed mainly to resist radial loads. Despite
the diversity of analytical and numerical studies, some absence of experimental results to …
