The flexibility of fabric bellows is not a big deal because pipe size is big but flexibility is very small. Normally it is ignored. You can model it as single element metal or rubber bellows but spring rate may be ignored or put arbitrary number.
Fabric bellows is used typically for flue gas of FCC, incinerator of sulfur plant, and power plant, and other industrial plants downstream of boiler or heat recovery systems. Major design factor is material selection of components against high temperature and abrasive fluid service such as refractory lining, packed design for temperature or erosion, etc. rather than flexibility.
