On the prediction of arresting efficiency of integral buckle arrestors for deepwater pipelines

Carbon fibre buckle arrestors for offshore pipelines

“…8. Moreover, Gong and Li [49] found that in integral arrestors, the cross-over ratio PX/PP decreases with the increase in D/t. However, current results show that in CFRP arrestors the PX/PP is not affected by the D/t of the pipeline.…”

“…Gong and Li [49] performed a parametric study to measure the cross-over pressure (PX/PP) in integral buckle arrestor based on the geometric parameters, D/t and h/t. They proposed the following empirical equation for pipelines with 15 < D/t < 35 0.46 3.05 1 1.086…”
