Abstract
The geometrically exact theory of linear elastic rods is used to formulate the general three-dimensional problem of a twisted, clamped rod hanging under gravity and subject to buoyancy forces from a fluid. The resulting boundary value problem is solved by the method of matched asymptotic expansions. The truncated analytical solution is compared with results obtained from a numerical scheme and shows good agreement. The method is used to consider the near-catenary application of a clamped pipeline
