Abstract: Liquid in a large piping system could become a resonance column under axial excitations. A 1000-m long closed-boundaries pipeline with pressure wave propagation velocity of 1000 m/s would have ...

Abstract: This paper documents three case studies that involve dynamic centrifuge tests that simulated large-scale shaking table tests on soil–pile-structure systems. The large-scale shaking table tests were performed using the ...

Abstract: One of the current topics in the seismic design of piping systems is the overall reliability of them in earthquake events. Actual piping systems are generally supported by independent structures ...

Abstract: Friction between pipe and support structure is generally known to reduce seismic response of the piping systems. Vibration tests using large-scale piping model with friction support were carried ...
