Abstract
In this study, the bending behaviour of tubular members is investigated. The thesis consists of four parts:
Part I: Literature study of the bending behaviour of tubular members
Part II: Spiral-welded tubes for application in combined walls
Part III: Deformation of buried pipelines crossing active strike-slip faults
Part IV: Closure
In Part I, a literature study of the bending of tubular members is presented. In Parts II and III, two more specific topics within this broad field of research are discussed. In a final part of the thesis, an evaluation of the performed research is presented.
