Abstract

Plastic deformation during the manufacture process of electric resistance welded (ERW) pipe determines the stress-strain relationship of the steel pipe, which affects the collapse pressure of offshore pipelines. To track the deformation history of the pipe, the entire process was simulated via finite element analysis using a solid element. A material model that considered both the Bauschinger effect and strain hardening was adopted. Various sizes of pipe cross-sections were simulated. As greater compression was applied during the sizing process, the strain hardening effect became more significant, so that the compressive yield strength was increased in the circumferential direction. The strain hardening effect was most prominent for a smaller diameter-to-thickness ratio (D/t), so that an increase in the collapse pressure could be obtained with a larger sizing ratio. Therefore, current design criteria for the collapse pressure recommended by Det Norske Verita (DNV) and API could be enhanced for a smaller D/t to consider the strain hardening effect during the sizing process.
