Regarding Subsea Pipeline coated with concrete, to model pipeline for stress/strain analysis in ABAQUS and using pipe (or beam) elements (e.g. element Pipe31), I do not know how to model Stress Concentration Factor (SCF)? (SCF in the field joints)

(Just for clarity, in ANSYS for element Pipe20 the SCF can be defined for bending stress calculation, to make an analogy between ABAQUS and ANSYS I wanted to know how this is possible in ABAQUS)
