Abstract

ABSTRACT Previous studies of the marine riser VIV have primarily considered the constant values of the tension, but limited work has been done to consider the variations of the tension with riser vibrations. In addition, previous studies have mainly focused on the effect of the inflow velocity profile on a riser VIV, while a study of a riser VIV at a wide range of velocities is still lacking. This study presents a model that can take into account the variation of the tension with riser vibrations. The VIV characteristics of the riser were investigated based on the fluid-structure coupling methods. It is shown that the model that takes into account the variation of the tension is able to accurately capture the bimodal character of the amplitude-ratio curve and the vortex shedding pattern, and to calculate the vibration frequencies accurately.
