This paper proposes a new shell element formulation using the scaled boundary finite element (SBFE) method. A shell element is treated as a three-dimensional continuum. Its bottom surface is approximated with a quadrilateral spectral element and the shell geometry is represented through normal scaling of the bottom surface. Neumann expansion is app...

The present work investigates the effect of internal flow on the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) characteristics of a marine riser under different boundary conditions. A numerical model of the riser structure is established by considering the complex flow fields. The developed model is solved by the finite element theory and Newmark method, and it i...
