Spectrum Pipelines module
Spectrum-Lateral Buckling
Lateral buckling propensity from the effective axial force and the Hobbs critical buckling force, with virtual anchor spacing to the SAFEBUCK guidelines.
Spectrum-Lateral Buckling calculates a pipeline’s propensity for lateral buckling by comparing the effective axial force along the pipeline with the Hobbs critical buckling force.
It also calculates the characteristic virtual anchor spacing (VAS) length based on the SAFEBUCK guidelines.
