Finite Element Analysis of Fatigue in Offshore Pipelines with Internal and External Circumferential Cracks
Fatigue lifetime of offshore pipelines with semi-elliptical circumferential surface cracks is often underestimated. An accurate prediction of the pipeline structural integrity is nevertheless important in order to prevent unnecessary and expensive downtime, failures leading to leakage or spillage of...
