This condition, which is associated with high temperature and high pressure (HT/HP) of oil in the pipeline leads to large displacement. Finally, bending moment and effective axial force are produced. This way, the cross section of the pipeline may experience failure. In this research, a pipeline on the seabed is simulated employing ABAQUS software, and various influential factors such as the friction coefficient of seabed soil, external and internal hydrostatic pressure and temperature changes in the process of creating upheaval buckling are assessed. The results show that the friction coefficient of soil have much more effect than the other parameters. Furthermore, the pipeline would be unstable when the efficacious axial force increases.  UR - https://www.jcme-journal.com/article_58560.html L1 - https://www.jcme-journal.com/article_58560_4822b39c5039e012bedcd3b5168a3cfc.pdf ER -
