Abstract
The expansion of complex six-lobe pipe by means of mandrels is studied by finite-element simulation. Such pipe is used in the repair of oil boreholes. The mandrel configuration is determined on the basis of the damage to the pipe being repaired. Recommendations are made regarding the selection of the mandrel shape.
