AbstractReliable and efficient pipeline networks are crucial for supplying natural gas to
end users. Pipeline networks are cost-effective but susceptible to numerous risks,
notably corrosion, natural hazards, and human-induced interventions, leading to ...Practical ApplicationsThis study presents a spatial analysis framework that utilizes historical failure
data and GIS-based techniques to identify high-risk zones in natural gas pipeline
networks. Municipalities, city engineers, and utility operators can ...
