Ontgronding bij persleidingbreuk

De proefresultaten van het experimentele onderzoek naar de ontgrondingskuilafmetingen bij persleidingbreuk, M1007, [3], alsmede een aantal praktijkgevallen zijn opnieuw geanalyseerd. Daartoe moesten een aantal grootheden opnieuw berekend worden uit de gearchiveerde meetgegevens. Er zijn een aantal dimensieloze parameters afgeleid, gebaseerd op...

Scour around pipelines, piles and sea walls

Review of knowledge regarding scour near pipelines and other offshore structures.

Forces on a flexible pile

The maintenance of pole, stake, and pile structures in streams and waves has been important to man from antiquity. Because of the common occurrence of the flow of a fluid past a cylinder, and the simplicity of the boundaries, one might expect that long ago all related problems could have been solved . However, if one experiments with forcing a...

Marine studies for the design and construction of offshore pipelines

The design and construction of submarine pipelines involve s special investigations and studies to understand marine environmental conditions which affect the location, installation methods, and design techniques for undersea line s. The paper will discuss application of marine geology, oceanography and marine engineering studies to submarine...
