Recently, the nonlinear dynamic responses among waves, submarine pipeline and seabed have become a target of analyses for marine geotechnical and coastal engineers. Specifically, the velocity field around the submarine pipeline and the wave-induced responses of soil, such as stress and strain inside seabed, have been recognized as dominant factors in discussing the stability of submarine pipeline. The aim of this paper is to investigate nonlinear dynamic responses of soil in seabed, around submarine pipeline, under wave loading. In order to examine wave-induced soil responses, first, the calculation is conducted in the whole domain, including wave field and the seabed, using the VOF-FDM method. Then, velocities and pressures, which are obtained on the boundary between the wave field and the seabed, are used as the boundary condition to compute the wave-induced stress and strain inside seabed, using the poro-elastic FEM model, which is based on the approximation of the Biot's equations. Based on the numerical results, the characteristics of wave-induced soil responses around submarine pipeline are investigated, in detail, inrelation to relative separate distance of the submarine pipeline from seabed. Also, the velocity field around the submarine pipeline is discussed.

Desalination plants have been recently constructed in many parts of the world due to water scarcity caused by population growth, industrialization and climate change. Most seawater desalination plants are designed with a submarine pipeline for intake and discharge. Submarine pipelines are installed directly on the bottom of the water body if the bottom is sandy and flat. Intake is located on a low-energy shoreline with minimal exposure to beach erosion, heavy storms, typhoons, tsunamis, or strong underwater currents. Typically, HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) pipes are used in such a configuration. Submarine pipelines cause many problems when they are not properly designed; HDPE pipelines can be floated or exposed to strong currents and wind or tidal action. This study examines the optimal design method for the trench depth of pipeline, analysis of on-bottom stability and dilution of the concentrate based on the desalination plant conducted at the Pacific coast of Peru, Chilca. As a result of this study, the submarine pipeline should be trenched at least below 1.8 m. The same direction of pipeline with the main wind is a key factor to achieve economic stability. The concentrate should be discharged as much as high position to yield high dilution rate.

One of the safest and the most economical methods to transfer oil and gas is pipeline system. Prediction and prevention of pipeline failures during its assessed lifecycle has considerable importance. The dropped object is one of the accidental scenarios in the failure of the submarine pipelines. In this paper, using Monte Carlo Sampling, the probability of damage to a submarine pipeline due to a box-shaped dropped object has been calculated in terms of dropped object impact frequency and energy transfer according to the DNV-RP-F107. Finally, Reliability sensitivity analysis considering random variables is carried out to determine the effect intensity of each parameter on damage probability. It is concluded that impact area and drag coefficient have the highest sensitivity and mass and add mass coefficient have the lowest sensitivity on probability of failure.

해저관로가 사용 기간동안 안정적으로 그 기능을 다하도록 하기 위해서는 설계 시 국부세굴의 가능성을 주의 깊게 살펴보아야 한다. 관로가 침식성 해저바닥 위에 놓여지면 세굴이 일어나고 관로가 밑으로 쳐져서 팽팽하게 된다. 이로 인해 해저관로의 부분 흑은 전체가 파괴된다면 막대한 복구비용이 소요될 뿐만 아니라 해양오염을 초래할 수도 있다 본 논문에서는 실험을 통해서 해저관로 주변의 세굴특성을 알아보았다. 일정경사면 을 갖는 모형해빈상에 모형관로를 설치하고 파형경사를 달리해 가면서 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고 실험결과로부터 얻은 데이터를 이용하여 분석에 필요한 매개변수 값들을 산정 하였다. 상대세굴심과 KC수, 수정 Ursell수와의 상관관계를 분석하여, 국부세굴심에 대한 경험식을 제시하였다.

Submarine pipelines encounter significant wave forces in shallow coastal waters due to the action of waves. In order to reduce such forces (also to protect the pipe against anchors and dropped objects) they are buried below the seabed. The wave force variation due to burial depends on the engineering characteristics of the sub soil like hydraulic conductivity and porosity, apart from the design environmental conditions. For a given wave condition, in certain type of soil, the wave force can reduce drastically with increased burial and in certain other type of soil, it may not. It is hence essential to understand how the wave forces vary in soils of different hydraulic conductivity. Based on physical model study, the wave forces on the buried pipeline model is assessed for a wide range of wave conditions, for different burial depths and for four types of cohesion-less soils, covering hydraulic conductivity in the range of 0.286 to 1.84 mm/s. It is found that for all the four soil types, the horizontal wave force reduces with increase in depth of burial, whereas the vertical force is high for half buried condition. Among the soils, well graded one is better for half buried case, since the least vertical force is experienced for this situation. It is found that uniformly graded and low hydraulic conductivity soil attracts the maximum vertical force for half buried case. A case study analysis is carried out and is reported. The results of this study are useful for submarine buried pipeline design.

The equations of motion of a submarine pipeline with the internal flowing fluid and subject to hydrodynamic loadings are derived by using Hamilton's principle. Coupling between the bending and the longitudinal extension due to axial load and thermal expansion are considered. Coupling between the twisting and extension are not considered. The equations of motion are well agreed with the results which are derived by the vector method.
