Numerical Modeling of Mechanical Behavior for Buried Steel Pipelines Crossing Subsidence Strata.

This paper addresses the mechanical behavior of buried steel pipeline crossing subsidence strata. The investigation is based on numerical simulation of the nonlinear response of the pipeline-soil system through finite element method, considering large strain and displacement, inelastic material beha...
