Buried pipelines, such as water supply and power transmission systems, play a vital role in
daily life. Seismic resistance of the pipeline systems is a very important research topic …

The design and the manufacture of the oil and gas pipelines are being improved over the
years in response to the observed damages and related disastrous effects. The …

Concrete pipes are a crucial element in sustaining contemporary life because they afford
appropriate means to transport drinking water, sewage, and storm water. Thus, these useful …

Buried pipe networks are important components of lifeline systems. An experiment is
conducted to test a buried pipe network subjected to an artificial earthquake produced by …

In this paper, seismic behavior of gas supply networks is investigated by constructing a 24
m× 24 m buried network and conducting an artificial earthquake test by detonating TNT …

This paper investigates the structural safety of parallel double-buried pipelines under non-
uniform seismic excitation considering the soil-pipeline interaction. A three-dimensional …

This paper presents thorough investigation and application of fibers in prestressed concrete
beams. Significances of the current work are related to research works conducted on fiber …

Buried pipelines are tubular structures that cross large areas with different geological
conditions. During an earthquake, imposed loads from soil deformations on pipelines may …

The performance of steel pipelines embedded in various backfill materials under seismic
wave propagation was evaluated using a three-dimensional (3-D) finite element (FE) model …
