An Equivalent Linear Method to Predict Nonlinear Bending Mechanics of Dredging Floating Hose String

Dredging hoses are flexible and are particularly suitable for slurry transportations for mud or sand in dredging projects. To achieve sufficient bending stiffness and to prevent the pipe body from collapsing, this type of hose segment is a composite structure that is embedded with several cord reinf...
