  Nonlinear Three Dimensional Dynamic Analysis of Titanium Drilling Riser

  By Rizwan A. Khan, Abhishek Khandelwal, Suhail Ahmad

  Abstract: Titanium alloys are selected for a high-pressure drilling riser’s application due to its high specific strength, corrosion resistance, and favorable elastic properties. The qualification of this titanium alloy requires assessing its resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking due to seawater with/without cathodic protection, evaluating its dynamic response under long crested random sea. The response analysis is based on a simulation technique which duly considers the various nonlinear effects …
