Buried steel pipelines crossing strike-slip faults
(2012)The paper examines the behaviour of buried steel pipelines crossing active strike-slip faults. The vertical fault plane is crossed by the pipeline at an angle ranging between zero and 45 degrees, causing significant plastic ... -
Finite element analysis of buried steel pipelines under strike-slip fault displacements
(2011)The present paper investigates the mechanical behavior of buried steel pipelines, crossing active strike-slip tectonic faults. The fault plane is vertical and crosses the pipeline axis at a certain angle. The interacting ... -
Mechanical behavior of buried steel pipelines crossing strike-slip seismic faults
(2011)The present paper investigates the mechanical behaviour of buried steel pipelines, crossing active strike-slip tectonic faults. The fault plane is vertical and perpendicular to the pipeline axis. The interacting soil-pipeline ... -
Permanent earthquake-induced actions in buried pipelines: Numerical modeling and experimental verification
(2018)Buried pipelines are often constructed in seismic and other geohazard areas, where severe ground deformations may induce severe strains in the pipeline. Calculation of those strains is essential for assessing pipeline ... -
Structural behavior of buried pipe bends and their effect on pipeline response in fault crossing areas
(2017)Pipe bends, often referred to as “elbows”, are special pipeline components, widely used in onshore buried steel pipelines. They are sensitive to imposed deformations and their structural behavior is quite flexible and ...
