Abstract EN
Buried pipelines serve as a critical component of lifeline systems, such as water and gas supply.
They are interconnected to form a network to transport utilities.
The connections change the geometry and stiffness of pipelines and impact the seismic response of the pipelines.
This paper investigates the influence of connections on the seismic response of buried continuous steel trunk lines.
A finite element model is introduced for analyzing the seismic response of buried pipeline networks.
The seismic response of continuous steel pipelines with different connections, including cruciform and T-, K-, L-, and Y-shaped, is analyzed.
The impact of site class, pipe diameter, branch angle, and angle of wave incidence on the response of pipe connections is explored.
An influence coefficient defined to characterize the strain amplification at the connections is proposed for different forms of connections.
Engineering measures to reduce the strain amplification at connections are suggested.
