  • If there are some construction works that affect the stability of buried pipelines, the pipelines should be moved to guarantee their safety. In this paper, modeling methods for analyzing the movement of pipelines were sought, and the step-by-step stress estimation method of moving pipelines was developed. Some factors affecting of pipeline response such as the element type, the element size, boundary modeling, and geometric non-linearity were quantitatively investigated. In addition, some conditions in which accuracy and effectiveness can be compromised in the analysis of long pipelines were identified. A neural network was used to estimate the pipeline stress. The inputs to the neural network included step-by-step displacements, and the output was the resulting stress at each movement step. After training the neural network, it can be used to estimate pipeline stresses at some sub-steps that are not included in the training. A Windows-based stress estimation program was developed.

  • The optimum design problem of a proposed oil pipeline network has been formulated as a zero-one programming model to determine the optimum sizes of pipe and pump which minimize the sum of material costs and operating costs during the 20 years of life span. Applying to a real situation, the problem constitutes an assignment type zero-one programming with 372 zero-one variables and 13 constraints. A heuristic algorithm has been developed based on the modified Petersen algorithm utilizing the special form of the activity matrix. The results showed impressive cost savings of 37 percent of the total cost from the original proposal.

  • In petrochemical complex, Hydrogen Network optimization is surveying the extra Hydrogen and needed Hydrogen of each company and calculating the optimized distribution. This paper compares the case of using the existing pipeline and the case of not using the existing pipeline to show the effect quantitatively and clearly by modeling the both cases and using mathematical programming. As a result, using the existing pipeline can save the pipe cost over 20% and increase the whole network benefit by thirteen billion won.

  • Irrigation pipeline networks consist mainly of buried pipes and are therefore relatively free from topographic constraints. Installation of irrigation pipeline systems is increasing since the systems have several advantages compared to open channel systems. To achieve economic design of pipeline networks, the layout should meet several conditions such as shortest path, maximum flow, and least cost. Graph theory is mathematical tool which enable to find out optimum layout for complicated network systems. In this study, applicability of graph theory to figure out optimum layout of irrigation pipeline networks was evaluated.

  • In this paper, we propose a pipeline network coding (PNC) scheme for efficient data transmission in wireless networks, a data authentication scheme for verifying the integrity of data, and a node authentication scheme for a virtual source. PNC is a technique that improves the overall network performance by relaying data such that the relay node performing network coding transmits to the sender instead. However, network coding is vulnerable to a pollution attack, which is an attack by a malicious attacker to inject modified data into the network. To prevent this, hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) is used. For this purpose, in order to generate a tag used for data authentication, a key must be distributed to the nodes performing authentication. We applied a hash chain to minimize the overhead of key distribution. A null vector is used as the authentication scheme for the virtual source. Finally, we analyze the safety and complexity of the proposed scheme and show he performance through simulation.

  • In this paper, an intelligent system to determine welding parameters for each pass and welding position in pipeline welding based on one database and FEM model, two BP neural network models and a C-NN model was developed and validated. The preliminary test of the system has indicated that the developed system could determine welding parameters for pipeline welding quickly, from which good weldments can be produced without experienced welding personnel. Experiments using the predicted welding parameters from the developed system proved the feasibility of interface standards and intelligent control technology to increase productivity, improve quality, and reduce the cost of system integration.

  • This study is to make a comparison between the node method and the pipeline method for the analysis of the water distribution systems. For these purposes, the two methods were applied to a pipeline system in series, an artificial distribution network and a real distribution network. The results are as follows. 1. The difference between the results of the two methods was increased with the increase of the hydraulic gradient and the length between two adjacent nodes. 2. When all pipe lengths between two adjacent nodes were larger than 200~300m and have the steep hydraulic gradient, it was found that the results of the two methods showed high differences. 3. The difference between the results of the two methods were negligible in the case of the real distribution system in which only 12% whole pipelines were longer than 30m and the longest pipe length was 850m.
