Abstract: The objective of this paper is to present solutions for the linear dynamics of flexible risers using a novel combination of efficient embedding and asymptotic techniques. Numerical examples for ...

Abstract: Exchange of data between geometric modeling systems of different inherent capabilities frequently requires approximate conversion of high degree, piecewise, polynomial curves and surface patches to ...

Abstract: The general three-dimensional linearized dynamic equations of a compliant riser, idealized as a rotationally nonuniform rod, around a nonlinear static configuration in the presence of general ...
