Numerical techniques for design calculations of longitudinal bending in buried steel pipes subjected to lateral Earth movements

This paper presents simplified finite-element analysis procedures based on geometrical nonlinearity and ductile Mohr–Coulomb–Davis plasticity for analysis of bending behaviour of steel pipes subjected to lateral soil loading. A simple, and easy to implement, user-defined subroutine to represent soil...
