- Pressure Containment (Bursting)
- Local Buckling (General); which comprise of:
- Local Buckling External Overpressure only (System Collapse)
- Propagation Buckling
- Local Buckling (Combined Loading Criteria). This may be Load or Displacement Controlled.

- Ammonia, and Alcohols;
- Provide data for screening of observed span length
- Evaluate allowable span length
- Static stresses due to bending under lateral loads in the extreme storm conditions. The loading on the span includes self weight, buoyancy and maximum steady state hydrodynamic loading
- Assessment of the risk of vortex-induced vibrations by the use of simple “reduced velocity” method.
- Determining concrete thickness for a pipe specification;
- Determining wall thickness to achieve a specified safety factor;
- Determining a safety factor for a specific pipe input
- Batch processing several analyses for different water-depths, currents and wave profiles.
- Determine concrete thickness for a pipe specification;
- Determine a required wall thickness to ensure stability;
- Calculate the safety factor between submerged weight as specified and that required for stability.
- Determine whether the pipeline is susceptible to upheaval buckling;
- Evaluate the required height of backfill to prevent upheaval buckling.
- The Pipeline is trenched for protection, therefore preventing lateral movement;
- Submerged weights are low since concrete is often necessary for stability;
- The contents temperatures are high and Pipeline flexibility is high.
- The UPBK module enables the engineer to quickly and easily carry out upheaval buckling calculation. This in turn allows flexibility in conceptual design and assessment of the pipeline for a range of operational and environmental conditions.

- Calculate the minimum wall thickness for each of the selected design code requirements (hoop stress, hydrostatic collapse, buckle propagation, diameter to thickness ratio);
- Select the minimum wall thickness that will comply with all the selected design code requirements;
- Recommend the nearest API pipe size that will comply with all the selected design code requirements.
- Calculate the thermal, pressure, frictional and total strain at each node along the pipeline;
- Calculate the displacement of both the hot and cold ends of the pipeline (this takes into account the variation of temperature and pressure profile along the length);
- Calculate the maximum and minimum stresses at the nodal points.
