The lowest pressure that can sustain the propagation of the collapse, the \u003ci\u003epropagation pressure\u003c\/i\u003e, is only a small fraction of the \u003ci\u003ecollapse pressure\u003c\/i\u003e of the intact pipe. The large difference between these two pressures requires that pipelines be designed on the collapse pressure, and the extent of the potential catastrophic damage suffered is limited by the periodic introduction of buckle arrestors to the line. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVolume 2 of the book series\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e Mechanics of Offshore Pipelines \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eaddresses the major aspects of buckle propagation including its initiation, establishment of the propagation pressure, and the dynamics of buckle propagation. Buckle propagation under tension, in pipe-in-pipe pipeline systems, and confined buckle propagation in tubulars such as grouted casing are examined in dedicated chapters. Three chapters deal with the performance of the most commonly used buckle arrestors under both quasi-static and dynamic buckle propagation. Each of these problems is studied through experiments, analyses, and large-scale numerical simulations. The results are used to provide empirical design equations and design guidelines on how to mitigate the effects of buckle propagation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stelios Kyriakides,Liang-Hai Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 012817014X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780128170144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gulf Professional Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/21\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.92d","brand":"Stelios Kyriakides","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48135934869759,"sku":"9780128170144","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3ce530f9-98db-4a9c-a38c-c7d3f36a9fe5.jpg?v=1770159415","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mechanics-of-offshore-pipelines-volume-stelios-kyriakides-9780128170144","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
