The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bend angle on the collapse behavior of locally wall thinned pipe bends. For this purpose, the present study performed three-dimensional finite element analysis on the 30-, 60-, and 90-degree pipe bends with local wall thinning at the center of intrados, extrados, and crown, and evaluated the collapse moment for different thinning dimensions under closing- and opening-mode bending with a constant internal pressure. The results showed that, for intrados and extrados wall thinning, the reduction in the collapse moment due to local wall thinning became significant with decreasing bend angle of pipe bends. This effect of bend angle was enhanced with increasing thinning dimensions, and it was clearer fur opening-mode bending than for closing-mode bending. For crown wall thinning, however, the effect of bend angle was unclear and was less sensitive to the change of wall thinning shapes.

This study proposed an analytical method to evaluate a local allowable wall thickness (LAWT) for locally thinned pipe subjected to internal pressure and bending moment. In this method, the stresses in the thinned region were calculated by finite element analysis and plastic collapse was applied as a failure criterion of thinned pipe. Using this method, LAWT for a simplified thinned pipe was evaluated with variation in axial extent of thinned area, and it was compared with allowable wall thickness provided by previous pipe wall thickness criteria. The results showed that the LAWT was lower, about 50%, than that calculated by construction code or ASME Code N-597, and it was higher, about 2 times, than that estimated by evaluation model based on pipe experiments. In addition, LAWT was decreased with increasing axial extent of thinned area and saturated with further increase in axial extent. And, the variation in LAWT with axial extent of thinned area depended on type of load, especially a magnitude of bending moment, considering in the evaluation.

본 논문은 철근을 보강한 일반강관을 이용하여 지반을 보강할 경우 터널안정성의 효과에 대하여 연구한 것이다. 본 연구를 위하여 철근 보강형 강관과 일반강관의 휨강성을 이론과 실험을 통하여 비교 분석하였으며, 실질적으로 터널 안정성에 미지는 보강효과를 분석하기 위하여 수치해석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 일반강관에 비해 철근 보강형 강판의 경우 휨강성은 65% 증가되며, 터널 안정성 보강효과는 약 10% 내외 증가되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 철근 보강형 강판을 이용한 터널 보강공법의 경우 터널의 안정성을 경제적으로 확보할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper a practical limit load estimating procedure is proposed for general pipe-elbow structures subjected to complex loading (in-plane and out-of-plane bending, internal pressure and axial force). The explicit calculating formulae are presented on the basis of theoretical analysis combined with numerical simulation. Von Mises' yield criterion is adopted in both analytical and numerical calculation. The finite element examination shows that the method provides a simple but satisfactory prediction of pipe structures in engineering plastic analysis.

Induction bending is a method that allows the bending of any material that conducts electricity. This technology applies a bending force to a material that has been locally heated by an eddy current induced by a fluctuating electromagnetic field. Induction bending uses an inductor to locally heat steel through induction. This results in a narrow heat band in the shape to be bent. In general, the reduction of thickness attenuation of a large-diameter steel pipe is not allowed to exceed 12.5%. In this paper, in order to meet the standard of thickness attenuation reduction, a non-uniform heating temperature jump-bending process was investigated. As a result, the developed bending technique meets the requirements of thickness attenuation reduction for large-diameter steel pipes.

본 연구에서는 감육결함이 가공된 실배관 곡관 시편을 대상으로 10 MPa의 내압과 반복 굽힘하중 조건에서 피로 시험을 수행하였다. 시험에는 감육결함이 곡관의 외호부와 내호부에 존재하는 경우를 고려하였으며, 반복 하중으로는 완전 역방향의 변위제어 형태로 작용되는 In-plane 상의 굽힘하중이 고려되었다. 실험 결과, 감육결함이 곡관의 외호부에 존재하는 경우에는 결함부가 아닌 곡관의 측면에서 축방향 균열이 생성되었다. 또한, ASME Sec.III의 설계 피로곡선에서 예측된 건전 곡관의 피로수명보다 긴 피로수명을 보였으며, 피로수명이 결함 길이에 크게 영향을 받지 않았다. 반면, 결함이 내호부에 존재하는 곡관은 내호부에서 원주방향 균열이 발생하였으며, 피로수명은 ASME Sec.III의 설계 피로곡선에서 예측한 건전 곡관의 피로수명보다 짧은 값을 보였다. 또한, 내호부 감육 곡관의 피로수명은 결함 길이가 감소함에 따라 뚜렷이 감소하였다.

본 논문에서는 고강도 강관을 이용한 강관 보강 그라우팅의 보강 효과 검증을 통해 현장 적용성에 관한 실험적 내용을 다루었다. 기존 강관보강 그라우팅 공법에는 SGT275 (구 STK400) 강관을 일반적으로 적용하고 있으나, 강관 보강 그라우팅이 적용된 터널의 붕락사례를 보면 강관의 과도한 꺾임, 파단 등의 사례가 발생되고 있다. 이러한 사례가 발생하는 여러 원인 중 굴착에 따른 터널의 이완하중에 대응하는 강관의 강성 부족이 그 원인이 될 수 있다. 최근 들어 고강도 강관(SGT550)의 개발로 강관의 강도가 증가했으나, 강도 증대를 고려한 보강방안에 대한 연구가 미흡하므로 이에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고강도 강관과 일반 강관의 이음 유무, 주입재의 충전 여부 등 다양한 조건에 대해 인장강도 및 휨 전단력 실험을 수행하고, 기존 제시된 설계법을 통해 강관의 강도 차이에 따른 효율적인 현장 적용성에 대한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 특히, 실제 현장에 고강도 강관과 일반 강관을 시공하고 굴착에 따른 강관의 변위형상과 응력에 대한 계측 결과를 통해 고강도 강관의 보강 효과를 검증하였다. 연구결과 고강도 강관은 휨 강도가 우수하여 보강효과가 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 강도 증진효과로 인해 아칭효과도 기대된다.

This paper investigates deformation characteristics of gas pipeline using the in-plane bending experiment and finite element analysis of a pipe bend. The effect of the bending angle and internal pressure on the deformation characteristics is analyzed. The pipe bend used in this study is API 5L X65 (out diameter: 20 inch) material with the thickness of 11.9 mm. The maximum load, displacement at maximum load, angle and local strain of 90° pipe bend are obtained from the in-plane bending experiment. Comparison between FE results and experimental data shows overall good agreements. In addition, the deformation characteristics of 22.5° and 45° pipe bend are calculated using the finite element analysis. As a result, the effect of the bend angle on the deformation characteristics is discussed.

The industrialization and urbanization forced to increase the density of pipelines such as water supply, sewers, and gas pipelines. The materials used for the existing pipe lines are mostly composed of concretes and steels, but it is true that the development for more durable and efficient materials has been continued performed to produce long lasting pipe lines. Recently, underground pipes serve in diverse applications such as sewer lines, drain lines, water mains, gas lines, telephone and electrical conduits, culverts, oil lines, etc. In this paper, we present the result of investigation pertaining to the structural behavior of unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U) flexible pipes buried underground. In the investigation of structural behavior such as a ring deflection, pipe stiffness, 4-point bending test, experimental and analytical studies are conducted. In addition, pipe stiffness is determined by the parallel plate loading tests and the finite element analysis. The difference between test and analysis is about 8% although there are significant variations in the mechanical properties of the pipe material. In addition, it was found by the 4-point bending test there is no problem in the connection between the pipes by coupler.

Bending using high-frequency induction heating is used to bend pipes and sections, and is currently widely applied in industrial fields such as power generation facilities, ships, onshore plants, and offshore plants. The purpose of this study is to study the manufacturing process and design technology of high-frequency bending of pipe to make the best pipe design arrangement. Although various studies are being conducted in the field of high-frequency bending, more research is needed on high-frequency bending of pipes for ship building and offshore plants. The purpose of this study is to review the feasibility of production design using 3D model tool of S3D and AM(PDMS), and to review and improve bending thickness reduction, reduction rate, and roundness.
