Theoretical and Experimental Prediction of the Response of a Marine Riser Model Subjected to Sinusoid Excitation of Its Top End with Amplitude of Two Diameters Parallel to a Uniform Stream of Speed Equal to 240 mm/s

摘要

The objective of this report is to provide an analysis of the experimental results obtained from a 3 m flexible riser model with its top end oscillated harmonically with an amplitude of two diameters parallel to a uniform stream which is constant with depth and of speed equal to 240 mm/s, and a comparison of the experimental results from the flexible model with theoretical predictions of the response based on rigid cylinder experimental results.
