Neurofuzzy-Based GMDH-PSO to Predict Maximum Scour Depth at Equilibrium at Culvert Outlets
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the neurofuzzy-based group method of data handling (NF-GMDH) as an adaptive learning network was utilized to predict the maximum scour depth at equilibrium downstream of culvert outlet structures. The NF-GMDH ...
Vibration and Stress Analyses of Positive Displacement Pump Pipeline Systems in Oil Transportation Stations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In oil transportation stations, the plunger motion exhibited by positive displacement pumps can cause a great deal of vibration that can influence the secure operations of the equipment and pipelines. If resonance between ...
Buckling Strength of a Thin-Wall Stainless Steel Liner Used to Rehabilitate Water Supply Pipelines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Stainless steel liners are being used with increasing frequency for the trenchless rehabilitation of damaged water supply pipelines in China. At present, there is little research on the buckling resistance of stainless ...
Study on the Seepage Field and Underground Erosion of a Loess Pipeline Foundation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because loess underground erosion is one of the major engineering geological problems in loess areas of China, foundation loess of the Zichang-Yongping section of West-East Gas Pipelines is taken as the research object. ...
Experimental Study of the Effects Produced by a Backfilling Process on Full-Scale Buried Corrugated HDPE Pipes in Fine-Grained Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes are widely used throughout the world due to their significant advantages. Most of the previous studies have focused on the behavior of the pipe-soil system under live loading and the ...
Undrained Load-Displacement Behavior of Partially Embedded Pipeline on Seabed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The initial embedment of as-laid offshore pipeline is one of the important design considerations for on-bottom stability analysis. Despite the significant advancement in the use of numerical and analytical methods to predict ...
Comparison of Statistical Models for Predicting Pipe Failures: Illustrative Example with the City of Calgary Water Main Failure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Several statistical models have been proposed to study effects of different covariates in the failure of water pipes. In this paper, three statistical models, the Weibull proportional hazard model (WPHM), the Cox proportional ...
Signature Failure Modes of Pipelines Constructed of Different Materials When Subjected to Earthquakes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The 2010/2011 Canterbury (New Zealand) earthquakes caused significant damage to buried pipeline infrastructure. Observations of damaged pipes that were made during either repair or replacement were used to define representative ...
Analysis and Design of Buried Steel Water Pipelines in Seismic Areas<sup>1</sup>
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper offers an overview of available methodologies and provisions for the structural analysis and mechanical design of buried welded steel water pipelines subjected to earthquake action. Both transient (wave-shaking) ...
