Calculate pipeline longitudinal stress, Tresca combined stress, and Von Mises equivalent stress checks. Hoop stress is calculated using either Barlow's equation (suitable for thin wall pipes), the log equation (suitable for thick wall pipes), or Lame's equation (suitable for thick wall pipes).
The axial load is calculated using the thick wall formula (API RP 1111 and DNV OS F101). For onshore and offshore pipelines the internal pressure is assumed zero during installation. For offshore pipelines, the external pressure is assumed constant for installation and operation. For onshore pipelines external pressure should be ignored. The design factor should include all relevant factors (eg quality factor E and stress factor F etc).
