Segmentation of buried concrete pipe images
The enormity of the problem of deteriorating pipeline infrastructure is widely apparent. Since a complete rebuilding of the piping system is not financially realistic, municipal and utility operators require the ability to monitor the condition of buried pipes. Thus, reliable pipeline assessment and management tools are necessary to develop long term cost effective maintenance, repair, and reha...
متن کاملThe Estimation of Buried Pipe Diameters by Generalized Hough Transform of Radar Data
The generalized Hough transformmethod is applied to the measurement of the diameters of buried cylindrical pipes by Ground Penetration Radar (GPR). 600 MHz radar scans across long pipes, buried in one metre or so of soil, show complex reflection patterns consisting of a series of inverted hyperbolic arcs. The time of flight t(y) as the radar probe is scanned along an axis, y, perpendicular to t...
متن کاملAutomated detection of cracks in buried concrete pipe images
The detection of cracks in concrete infrastructure is a problem of great interest. In particular, the detection of cracks in buried pipes is a crucial step in assessing the degree of pipe deterioration for municipal and utility operators. The key challenge is that whereas joints and laterals have a predictable appearance, the randomness and irregularity of cracks make them difficult to model. O...
متن کاملFinite Element Modeling of Buried Glass-reinforced Composite Pipe
Two regional finite element (FE) models of a buried glass-fiber reinforced composite pipe have been developed at the National University of Singapore (NUS). The model replicates an arbitrary site whereby fuel is being transported through the 400 mm diameter line, and comprises of multiple components such as the valve pit, 45 degrees and 90 degrees pipe bends, and a service road consisting of th...
متن کاملNeuro-fuzzy network for the classification of buried pipe defects
Pipeline infrastructure is decaying at an accelerating rate due to reduced funding and insufficient quality control resulting in poor installation, little or no inspection and maintenance, and a general lack of uniformity and improvement in design, construction and operation practices. The current practice that is being followed to inspect the conditions of pipes is usually time consuming, tedi...
