... drag and lift forces are numerically obtained for 100 years return period storm condition using the Fourier decomposition method. Non-linear spring element is used to simulate a slip phenomenon between pipeline and seabed. The effects of both bi-linear and tri-linear spring element models...

... ABSTRACT This paper presents a non-linear spring element in which the extensional and torsional behaviour is coupled. The spring element development relies on a reported local analytical model that predicts the relationship between axial translation and rotation in wire ropes. This model also...
