A top tensioned steel (E = 200 GPa) riser has a length of L = 100 m, outer diameter D o = 0.7 m, and thickness t = 0.01 m. It is neutrally buoyant, w = 0. A current causes a constant lateral load per metre of 10 kN/m. What is the curvature 30 m from the top of the riser if the top tension is 100 kN
