On-Bottom Stability of Umbilicals and Power Cables for Offshore Wind Applications [PDF]
With the increase in offshore wind farms, the demands for umbilicals and power cables have increased. The on-bottom stability of umbilicals and power cables under the combined wave and current loading is the most challenging design issue, due to their light weight and the complex fluid–cable–soil interaction.

Voltages and AC Corrosion on Metallic Tubes in Umbilical Cables Caused by Magnetic Induction From Power Cable Charging Currents [PDF]
Offshore umbilical cables often include both power cables and elements such as metallic tubes and signal cables. It was concluded from a recent failure of stainless tubes that ac corrosion was the cause of the failure. This paper describes how ac corrosion can lead to tube failure when a puncture exists in the insulating tube coating.
