On the arresting efficiency of spiral buckle arrestors for offshore pipelines

Buckle arrestors are devices placed along an offshore pipeline for the purpose of arresting an incoming propagating buckle. Typically, buckle arrestors locally increase the pipe’s bending rigidity in the hoop direction. Spiral buckle arrestors are rods closely wound around the pipe for a number of t...
