Abstract
Subsea jumpers play a critical role in subsea oil and gas production. Structural damage such as cracks is inevitable in subsea jumpers due to the harsh marine environment (internal fluid flow corrosion, high temperature and pressure, etc.). However, the current research on damage detection and evaluation of subsea jumpers is limited, particularly in cases of slight damage. This study thus proposes a method to identify cracks in subsea jumpers based on the modal characteristics and fractal theory. The accuracy of the method is verified by comparing the finite element simulation method via APDL and the analytical method via MATLAB. In addition, the sensitivity of the method to noise is investigated. The results indicate that the method accurately identifies cracks (single and multiple) with a minimum depth of 0.2 mm in various locations on subsea jumpers. This study may hold significant reference value for improving the safety and reliability of subsea jumpers.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Electronic Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of electronic materials. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrate knowledge in the areas of materials science, engineering, optics, physics, and chemistry into important applications of electronic materials. Sample research topics that span the journal's scope are inorganic, organic, ionic and polymeric materials with properties that include conducting, semiconducting, superconducting, insulating, dielectric, magnetic, optoelectronic, piezoelectric, ferroelectric and thermoelectric.
