Study on vibration of U-shaped flexible jumpers

During a free standing hybrid riser (FSHR) operation, because of vessel movement, a disturbance load is transmitted to the rigid risers through the U-shaped flexible jumpers from the vessel. This disturbance significantly affects the stability and fatigue of the entire system. To determine the effec...
