Hello Stressers and Sub-sea Pipeline Specialists,

Just a general question based on your experience on subsea pipelines. Are you encountering in your professional practice breaking waves? Or the wave theories in most of the beam element software is sufficient to consider which does not address breaking waves? Just want to have an idea if I need to widen my scope of study to enter into offshore pipeline field.

Pardon if my question is too general.

Just correct me if there is any error in my statement above.

Thanks & Warm Regards,
