Abstract: In order to analyze the influence of vortex-induced vibration on the strength and stability of marine drilling
risers, a simplified analytical model was established and a method for calculating vortex-induced dynamic response was
developed. A case study indicated that at primary resonance, first-order dynamic displacement response is greater than
higher-order mode responses, but the influence of dynamic moment and shearing force ofhigher-order modes cannot be
ignored. The natural frequency of risers decreased sharply with increasing length of the riser, but increased with
increasing top tension. Various factors should be considered to avoid vortex-induced vibration in practical application,
and the influence ofvortex-induced vibration could be estimated by calculating the fatigue lifetime ofriser.
Key words: Drilling riser, strength, vortex-induced, stability
