Consideration of the sediment mobility induced states of lowering, burial and spanning that simultaneously predicted high and low estimates of the resistance, proved critical to the buckle management design of the new pipeline. Tom et al., (2015) documented a process for the comprehensive...

... environment - Deep water deposits are rarely exposed at the earth's surface for geological inspection and, if they are, they have often gone through considerable alteration. The deep-water environment is thus very much a new frontier both to geological and engineering understandings. Cost of assessment...
