Cord-Slack Driven Deformation and Torsional Behavior in Unbonded Reinforced Thermoplastic Pipe
Author: [Bruce Zhou]Affiliation: [Jota Machinery Composites Material Prepreg Solution]Corresponding Author: [jotamachinery@gmail.com]Published : April 08 , 2026 Abstract Unbonded reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP) is widely used in oil and gas transportation due to its flexibility, corrosion resistance, and spoolable installation capability. However, field observations have shown that RTP may exhibit non-intuitive deformation under internal pressure, including […]
