Description
Summary:The objective of this report is to investigate the structural response of the submerged pipeline to impact from an anchor. This report will utilize ABAQUS/CAE Version 6.7 to effectively model the pipeline, anchor and soil material, thereby simplifying the complicated experimental method to evaluate the physical response of the pipeline. This report aims to provide relevant data for damage assessment in accordance to the DNV standards.
