Numerical research on the lateral global buckling characteristics of a high temperature and pressure pipeline with two initial imperfections.

With the exploitation of offshore oil and gas gradually moving to deep water, higher temperature differences and pressure differences are applied to the pipeline system, making the global buckling of the pipeline more serious. For unburied deep-water pipelines, the lateral buckling is the major buck...
