“…The predicted stress/strain distribution results for different layups and radii by the homogenized model agree favorably well with other solutions in literature such as those developed by Xia et al (Xia et al, 2001) or Tarn and Wang (Tarn and Wang, 2001). This method may be accurate for balanced angle-ply composite laminates but the accuracy must be investigated for composite cylinders with unbalanced angle plies.…”

There is accelerating interest in composite risers for deepwater applications. Composite risers offer much higher strength to weight ratios over metallic risers but there is less experience of their behavior in deepwater environments. A general review on current developments specific to composite risers highlighting the remaining challenges and the applications, design evolution, state-of-the-art modeling and experimental techniques is lacking. This paper provides such a review on fiber-reinforced polymer composite risers. The major issues for composite risers are addressed including the complicated combination of loads under harsh deep sea environment, the lack of long-term material degradation database for assessing the reliability of these riser systems and the need of effective numerical models to fully account for complex realistic loading configurations. The paper also highlights current gaps for design and application of composite risers in offshore technology and promising future research areas to help expand their utilization in deeper water.

AbstractIn the present article, the homogenization of a composite star-shaped tube with numerous thin, periodic, elastic wavy layers, is presented. The composite exhibits a multiscale periodicity allowing for a multistep asymptotic homogenization scheme starting from the finest scale. The scheme gives the complete effective thermoelastic behavior of the composite. By a numerical example of a two-phase composite with sinusoidal wavy walls, whose effective behavior is an orhotropic material, the above method is illustrated.

“…In the same year, Salzar 7 published a study about the stress distribution at tubes with different reinforcement volume fractions, aiming to obtain lighter and more efficient structures. A theoretical model for tubes under several loading cases such as torsion, flexion and pressurization was presented by Tarn and Wang 8 . These researchers and many others based on the deductions for anisotropic structures developed by Lekhnitskii 2 .…”

This paper shows theoretical models (analytical formulations) to predict the mechanical behavior of thick composite tubes and how some parameters can influence this behavior. Thus, firstly, it was developed the analytical formulations for a pressurized tube made of composite material with a single thick ply and only one lamination angle. For this case, the stress distribution and the displacement fields are investigated as function of different lamination angles and reinforcement volume fractions. The results obtained by the theoretical model are physic consistent and coherent with the literature information. After that, the previous formulations are extended in order to predict the mechanical behavior of a thick laminated tube. Both analytical formulations are implemented as a computational tool via Matlab code. The results obtained by the computational tool are compared to the finite element analyses, and the stress distribution is considered coherent. Moreover, the engineering computational tool is used to perform failure analysis, using different types of failure criteria, which identifies the damaged ply and the mode of failure.
