Overview list of cross-sectional loading data for stress/strain calculations (Output Table)

Data description/Result options:

ELEM:

Number of element where stress/strain calculations are to be performed at the mid cross-section

PRESS*F:

Specified internal pressure in pipeline at element

(Pressure from table PRESS is multiplied by applicable load factors (GLOADF and PRESS-F from table LOCASE). Pressure is 0. if not specified.)

F-AX:

Calculated axial force at element (1)

F-LAT:

Calculated shear force at element (1)

PHI-FL:

Calculated angle of shear force vector (1)

M-TORS:

Calculated twisting moment in element (1)

M-BEN:

Calculated bending moment in element (1)

PHI-MB:

Calculated angle of bending moment vector in element (1)

R-LAT:

Calculated lateral total reaction acting on element (soil reaction plus support reaction if element is supported by a table-support) (1) (2)

PHI-RL:

Calculated angle of lateral soil reaction vector at element (1) (2)

SOILNB*F:

Specified neutral/real top soil load (overburden) at element multiplied by the general load factor (2)

(top soil load from table SOILNB is multiplied by applicable load factors (UNCFn and LOADFn from table SOILNB and GLOADF from table LOCASE. Top soil load remains empty when no soil is present.)

TOPLOAD*F:

Specified extra top load on soil at element multiplied by the general load factor (2)

(Extra top load from table TOPLOAD is multiplied by applicable load factors (LOADFn from table TOPLOAD and GLOADF from table LOCASE. Extra top load remains empty when not specified.)

SUP-TOTAL:

Total horizontal soil support resulting from LAMBDA and/or SOILSUP from table CROSDAT (2)

(The contribution of SOILSUP is obtained by multiplying the SOILSUP value by 0.866*DOUT)

 

Info The number of rows is the number of specified cross-sections (accumulated).

 

Note 1:

In LOCAL element coordinate system (see output table ELEMNTS).

Note 2:

Undefined if there is no soil.
