This research program focused on the behaviour of low cycle fatigue (LCF) of wrinkled pipes, and was designed to develop the LCF life prediction models for the wrinkled pipes. It consisted of three phases of work, which are strip tests, full-scale pipe tests, and finite element analysis (FEA). In...

An ever increasing demand to exploit oil and natural gas reserves has significantly increased extraction activities even in the remotest regions of the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions of the Canadian North. Steel pipelines are the most efficient mode for transporting and distributing these...

Konrad, J. M., Morgenstern, N. R.
Frost heave is an important consideration in the design of buried chilled pipelines. A procedure for calculating the amount of heave under a chilled gas pipeline is presented based on a finite-difference formulation of the heat and mass transfer in saturated soils. The frost heave of the soil is...

Buried pipeline systems often transverse regions with a wide variety of soil types, geological conditions, or regions of varying seismicity, exposing these buried infrastructures to severe geohazards that pose a significant amount of risk to their structural and mechanical integrity. The...
