Summary

This paper attempts to investigate theoretically a buckle propagation in elastic pipelines subjected to a combined action of bending, axial tension and hydrostatic side pressure. Within the theory of elasticity, nonlinear deformation waves in a circular pipe are discussed on the basis of the coupled equations for the beam-flexural mode and the ring-flexural mode. The steady-progressive-wave solutions suggest a buckle propagation driven forward by both axial tension and side pressure.
