The weight coating requirements for assuring the on-bottom stability of several pipelines in the Arabian Gulf have been determined through an integrated design procedure including mathematical modelling for determining extreme wave conditions, field measurements of currents and physical model testing to establish the magnitude of the hydrodynamic forces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
