浮体二阶运动下钢悬链式立管触地区动态响应分析     

陈嘉明  白兴兰  杨风艳 《海洋工程》2022,40(6):133-141

浮体运动是引起钢悬链式立管(steel catenary riser,简称SCR)动态响应和疲劳损伤的关键因素,目前研究SCR问题时,为简化计算往往仅考虑平台一阶运动,忽略二阶运动影响。而实际上不同浮体结构的二阶运动响应特征明显,拟以SCR服役张力腿平台(tension leg platform,简称TLP)为例,探讨浮体二阶运动对SCR触地区动态响应的影响。建立考虑海床刚度退化的管土作用模型以改进现有的CABLE3D RSI程序,通过编写程序接口,将有限元分析得到的平台实际运动响应导入,研究平台不同运动作用下SCR触地区的位移、动力响应及疲劳分布情况。根据波流作用方向将TLP二阶慢漂运动分为近端和远端漂移两种工况,发现二阶运动下立管与海床的作用范围会增大,且触地区不仅发生高频小幅振荡运动,同时伴随低频大幅运动响应;平台远端漂移时,管内张力敏感程度高,而近端漂移时触地区的弯矩显著增大,都会不同程度提高触地区的疲劳损伤率。研究可为服役不同浮体的SCR响应预测与疲劳分析提供参考和借鉴。  相似文献   

Cross-Flow VIV-Induced Fatigue Damage of Deepwater Steel Catenary Riser at Touch-Down Point简     

王坤鹏  唐文勇  薛鸿祥 《中国海洋工程》2014,28(1):81-93

A prediction model of the deepwater steel catenary riser VIV is proposed based on the forced oscillation test data, taking into account the riser-seafloor interaction for the cross-flow VIV-induced fatigue damage at touch-down point （TDP）. The model will give more reasonable simulation of SCR response near TDP than the previous pinned truncation model. In the present model, the hysteretic riser-soil interaction model is simplified as the linear spring and damper to simulate the seafloor, and the damping is obtained according to the dissipative power during one periodic riser-soil interaction. In order to validate the model, the comparison with the field measurement and the results predicted by Shear 7 program of a full-scale steel catenary riser is carried out. The main induced modes, mode frequencies and response amplitude are in a good agreement. Furthermore, the parametric studies are carried out to broaden the understanding of the fatigue damage sensitivity to the upper end in-plane offset and seabed characteristics. In addition, the fatigue stress comparison at TDP between the truncation riser model and the present full riser model shows that the existence of touch-down zones is very important for the fatigue damage assessment of steel catenary riser at TDP.  相似文献   

Numerical and experimental analysis of the static behavior of highly deformed risers     

S.T. Santillan 《Ocean Engineering》2011,38(13):1397-1402

This paper models a slender, flexible structure used as a drill string or riser in the offshore oil and gas industry that connects the well-head with a floating control vessel. These systems are used in deep-water drilling applications and present considerable design challenges due to their extreme flexibility and susceptibility to buckling and vibration. Two typical configurations are used (Bai and Bai, 2005), with a common feature involving the attachment of a buoy designed to relieve some of the axial forces acting on the riser, especially at the attachment points. Previous work by the authors studied numerical results of small-amplitude vibrations and two other equilibrium configurations using parameter values that closely resemble the full-scale application (Santillan et al., 2008). Here, two new configurations are considered, and experiments are designed and conducted to verify these equilibrium results.  相似文献   

A variational formulation for three-dimensional analysis of extensible marine riser transporting fluid   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Chainarong Athisakul 《Ocean Engineering》2011,38(4):609-620

This paper presents a model formulation for static and dynamic analysis of three-dimensional extensible marine riser transporting fluid. A variational model formulation is developed based on the principle of virtual work-energy and the extensible elastica theory. The virtual work-energy functional is composed of the virtual strain energy due to axial stretching, bending, and torsion and the virtual work done by the external and internal fluid. The governing dynamic equilibrium equations are derived in the Cartesian coordinate. The finite element method is used to obtain the numerical solutions. The numerical examples are provided to demonstrate interesting effects of fluid transportation and axial deformation on large displacements and dynamic properties of the three-dimensional extensible marine riser.  相似文献   

Centrifuge modelling of SCR vertical motion at touchdown zone     

H.J.E. Hu  Y.K. Chow  A.C. Palmer 《Ocean Engineering》2011,38(7):888-899

Steel catenary risers (SCR) connect seabed pipelines and flow lines to floating structures used for oil and gas production in deep waters. Waves and currents induce motions of the structure and the risers. The repeated motions of the risers at the touchdown zone in turn induce loads on the seabed soil and might eventually cause fatigue damage to the risers. The analysis of riser fatigue damage is heavily dependent on the soil model. Soil behaviour at touchdown zone such as soil remoulding, stiffness degradation and deformation of the seabed at the touchdown zone further complicate the accurate assessment of riser fatigue damage, which is currently not appropriately quantified in existing design methods. This paper presents centrifuge model tests simulating the repeated vertical movement of a length of riser on clay seabed with increasing undrained shear strength with depth. During the tests, the pipe was subject to cyclic motion over fixed vertical displacement amplitude from an invert embedment of 0.5-3.5 pipe diameters into the soil. The test results show a significant progressive degradation of soil strength and diminution of excess pore water pressure with increasing number of riser penetration/uplift cycle. In view of the different types of environment loadings experienced by floating platforms and various soil conditions, tests were also conducted to investigate the effect of soil strength, riser displacement rate and loading mode on riser-soil interaction during repetitive penetration/uplift motion of the riser.  相似文献

刘碧涛  李巍  尤云祥  曲衍  范模 《海洋工程》2011,29(4):1-7

提出了一种对内孤立波与深海立管相互作用耦合数值模拟方法。流场采用内孤立波数值水槽方法进行模拟,结构响应采用基于薄壳理论的有限元方法进行计算,采用一种将流场和结构响应数据进行实时传输的方法,实现了流体与固体之间的耦合数值模拟。对内孤立波作用下某长径比为1 200的深海立管载荷及其动力响应特性进行了数值模拟与分析。结果表明内孤立波不仅会对深海立管产生突发性剪切载荷作用,而且还会使立管产生大幅度变形响应现象,因此在深海立管设计与应用中,内孤立波的影响是不可忽视的。研究表明,该方法为研究内孤立波作用下深海立管动力特性及其工程预报相关问题提供了一种有效的手段。  相似文献   

钢悬链线立管触地段的结构循环应变响应实验研究     

姜海洋  高福平  臧志鹏 《海洋工程》2015,33(4):11-18

基于量纲分析理论,建立了钢悬链线立管(SCR)触地段的结构循环应变响应的相似准则。设计SCR立管触地段与土体相互作用装置,实验研究了典型工况下触地段床面形状变化对结构应变响应的影响。实验结果表明:水流载荷可使立管触地段下方土体局部冲刷的范围增大,立管结构应变幅值也相应增大;随着管土循环拍击作用和局部冲刷变形的发展,钢悬链线立管触地段的循环应变幅值逐渐增大并趋于稳定值;在立管脱离床面的瞬间,可观测到立管上缘拉应变突增的现象。拉应变突增幅度随着床面变形的发展逐渐增大,进而导致循环应变幅值的增加。  相似文献

Evaluating young fluvial terrace riser degradation using a nonlinear transport model: Application to the Kongur Normal Fault in the Pamir,northwest China

Selecting an appropriate hillslope transport model and calibrating model parameters are essential for morphological dating of fault and fluvial scarps. In this paper, we refine the method of profile-based morphologic dating by updating the representation of nonlinearity in sediment flux dependence on the hillslope gradient. We apply this revised method to fluvial scarps bounding fluvial terraces offset along the Kongur Normal Fault in the semi-arid high-altitude Pamir mountains, northwestern China. One of these terraces, the T3 surface, is dated to 7.0^+1.9/_−1.6 kyr using ¹⁰Be cosmogenic depth profile analysis. Well-preserved, dated terraces make this an ideal site to test the utility of morphological modelling in constraining ages of the young terrace risers. To do this, 35 topographic swath profiles across the terrace risers are extracted from a 0.2 m-resolution digital elevation model produced using structure from motion from photos collected by an unmanned aerial vehicle. The best estimates of morphological age are 13.9 ± 1.3 m² for the riser T3/T4 and 11.9 ± 1.3 m² for T2/T3 using a linear diffusion approach. These two morphological ages overlap within uncertainty and fail to distinguish between two young terrace risers. Alternatively, we employed a nonlinear diffusion model, calibrated with transport constant k = 1 m² kyr⁻¹, nonlinearity n = 2, and critical gradient S_c = tan(33°). This nonlinear model produces ages of 7.3 ± 0.5 kyr for T3/T4 and 4.0 ± 0.2 kyr for T2/T3; these ages are consistent with terrace surface ages deduced by using vertical offset divided by independently determining average throw rate. This comparison shows the advantage of a nonlinear model in defining ages of young scarps. Furthermore, we explored the minor effect of heterogeneous degradation along steep sections of the scarp profiles. The nonlinear scarp modelling scheme we develop in this paper is suitable for studying scarp degradation in other regions. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

TLP使得干式井口在深水的应用成为可能,与常规的深水开发模式水下井口相比,TLP降低了钻完井作业的难度和费用,尤其在后期修井和调整并作业时,能够大大降低项目的投资,经济效益明显.TLP目前在墨西哥湾、北海及印度尼西亚深水油气田均有采用.目前针对TLP的钻完井设计和作业程序国内开展研究较少,制约了深水油气田开发前期方案设计工作的开展.因此,重点介绍了TLP对钻完井程序的影响;对于不同的平台钻机配置,总结了TLP的钻完井程序;提出了钻完井设计和作业过程中,TLP对回接套管、升沉补偿等问题的要求,分析了与常规深水湿式井口的温度剖面差异,为开展TLP钻完井技术研究和前期方案设计提供参考.  相似文献
