Pipelines as infrastructure components are very vulnerable to geohazard-induced
phenomena such as ground deformation, slopes failure and others. Understanding the …

Successful operation of infrastructure, such as the road, rail, and utility networks, are
fundamental to modern living, and failure of these can have significant consequences. Yet …

Reinforced concrete pipelines with gasketed bell-and-spigot joints are widely spread in
urban areas. The jointed concrete pipe is vulnerable subjected to blasting vibration induced …

The current design guidelines (eg, ALA 2005) have been reported to underpredict the axial
pullout resistance measured in laboratory and field tests for pipes buried in dense sand. The …

Buried medium-density polyethylene pipes are conveniently used in gas distribution
systems, particularly in areas subjected to ground movements, due to their flexible property …

China's economic development is closely related to oil and gas resources, and the country is
investing heavily in pipeline construction. Slope geological hazards seriously affect the long …

Buried medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) pipes are widely used for gas distribution
systems in Canada and worldwide. When exposed to geotechnical hazards such as ground …

Buried energy pipelines span for hundreds of thousands of kilometres, crossing zones of soil
instability and may need to be designed to resist differential ground movements. As a part of …

Buried medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) pipes are extensively used for gas distribution
systems. These pipes are sometimes exposed to geotechnical hazards such as ground …

Serviceability limit states (SLS) of segmental circular tunnel rings, subjected to symmetric
loading, may experience asymmetric deformations. This is investigated herein, based on …
