This paper proposes an analytical method based on large-deformation theory to predict the
mechanical responses of the existing pipeline. The hypothesis that the soil and structure can …

The structural safety of jointed rigid pipes can be jeopardized under abrupt ground
settlements. Most previous studies have investigated the response and safety of jointed rigid …

This study focused on the structural behavior of double barrel precast concrete (PC) box
culverts where the width of each barrel may vary from that of the other. In lieu of using the …

Underground utility tunnels provide essential services to the urban population and solve the
problem of the shortage of overground space. Although segmented utility tunnels suffer less …

In the present paper, we analyze the final part of the Southern Gas Corridor, a route
highlighted in the European energy security and energy union strategies. This route crosses …
