[ 1 ] - Sealing Performance of the End Fitting of a Marine Unbonded Flexible Pipe under Pressure Penetration

The sealing performance of end fittings is very important for offshore oil and gas pipelines. To investigate the sealing behavior of a ring-shaped wedge seal, global and local numerical models of the ring–pipe interaction have been developed based on the finite-element method. First, the sealing process of the ring under pressure is simulated. Second, a criterion for the penetration of fluid pr...
