the effect of seismic waves on buried gas pipelines
in this paper, the behaviour of buried pipelines under the effect of propagation of seismic waves and faulting is studied seperately. the stability of this type of structure was first studied by using three different methods proposed by newmark-hall, kenndey et al. and wang - yeh under the effect of ground faulting. by parametric study, the effect of soil types, size of pipeline, depth of embed...
متن کاملEvaluation of Seismic Protection Methods for Buried Fuel Pipelines Subjected to Fault Rupture
Buried steel fuel pipelines are critical lifelines for the society and the economy but are very vulnerable to earthquake-induced ground failure. Traversing seismic areas inevitably results in several pipe-fault crossings. Fault rupture forces a buried pipeline to undergo deformations that could be substantial and heavily endanger its integrity. Due to the grave consequences of a potential pipe ...
متن کاملAn Approach for 3D Visualization of Pipelines
Utility networks (pipelines and cables) are usually modelled by lines and nodes. The systems used for maintenance of utilities are typically twodimensional, allowing for creating vertical profiles in limited key places. Since the position is visualized on 2D maps, it is rather difficult to distinguish between cables and pipelines with the same x,y coordinates. Such visualization might be misund...
متن کاملTesting of Buried Pipelines Using Guided Waves
Introduction The inspection requirements of pipes that have an operational history of many tens of years have lead to the adoption of new maintenance practices and safety standards. The solution currently considered as best maintenance practice is the direct assessment of 100% of the pipelines with the minimum possible economical impact. The use of RBI (Risk Based Inspection) methods and the in...
متن کاملPerformance evaluation of modified bentlegPlow using finite element approach
ABSTRACT-This paper aims to develop a new design of a bentleg (BL) plow and to determine its performance as compared to the conventional one using finite element approach. The difference between the modified and conventional BL plows is the direction of angle between the projection of cutting blade on horizontal plane normal to plow shank and the line perpendicular to the plow shank in the same...
