Application of the finite element method for evaluating the stress distribution in buried damaged polyethylene gas pipes
During the loading process, buried gas pipes can experience severe stresses due to soil- structure interaction, the presence of traffic load, the soil’s column weight, daily and/or seasonal temperature changes and uniform internal pressure. In this research, the finite element method is employed to...
