본 연구에서는 국내에서 널리 사용되고 있는 매설가스배관인 API X65에 대해 지진 취약도 해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위해, 15가지 경우의 배관 해석모델에 대해 12본 세트의 다양한 지진파를 0.1g 등간격으로 스케일링하여 비선형 시간이력해석을 수행한 후, 비선형 시간이력해석으로 얻어진 매설가스배관의 최대 변형률을 이용하여 지진취약도 해석을 수행하였다. 지진 취약도 해석을 위해 본 연구에서는 또한, 지반조건, 단부지점조건, 매립깊이 및 배관형태 등을 변수로 고려하여 지진 취약도 해석을 수행하였다. 지진 취약도 해석결과, 지반조건, 단부지점조건 및 매립깊이는 매설가스배관의 취약도 곡선에 영향을 끼치는 것으로 판단되었고, 특히 지반조건이 미치는 영향은 다른 두 변수에 비해 다소 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면에, 배관형태가 취약도 곡선에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것을 알 수 있었다. 종합적으로, 매설가스배관의 지진 취약도 해석과 관련된 연구가 많지 않은 현실을 감안할 때, 본 연구결과는 매설가스배관의 지진 취약성 평가해석에 초석으로 고려되어질 수 있고, 추후 관련분야 연구에 좋은 참고자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.

A new layered shear continuum model box was developed to address the dynamic response issues of buried oil and gas pipelines under multi-point excitation. Vibration table tests were conducted to investigate the seismic response of buried pipelines and the surrounding soil under longitudinal multi-point excitation. A nonlinear model of the pipeline-soil interaction was established using ABAQUS finite element software for simulation and analysis. The seismic response characteristics of the pipeline and soil under longitudinal multi-point excitation were clarified through vibration table tests and simulation. The results showed good consistency between the simulation and tests. The acceleration of the soil and pipeline exhibited amplification effects at loading levels of 0.1 g and 0.2 g, which significantly reduced at loading levels of 0.4 g and 0.62 g. The peak acceleration increased with increasing loading levels, and the peak frequency was in the low-frequency range of 0 Hz to 10 Hz. The amplitude in the frequency range of 10 Hz to 50 Hz showed a significant decreasing trend. The displacement peak curve of the soil increased with the loading level, and the nonlinearity of the soil resulted in a slower growth rate of displacement. The strain curve of the pipeline exhibited a parabolic shape, with the strain in the middle of the pipeline about 3 to 3.5 times larger than that on both sides. This study provides an effective theoretical basis and test basis for improving the seismic resistance of buried oil and gas pipelines.

In this study, the impact characteristics of subsea pipelines that were installed in various soil types and burial depths were evaluated by a numerical method. An impact scenario replicated a dropped ship anchor that fell vertically and impacted an installed subsea pipeline. In order to calculate the impact force through terminal velocity, FLUENT, a computational fluid dynamic program and MDM (Moving Deforming Mesh) technique were applied. Next, a dynamic finite element program, ANSYS Explicit Dynamics, was used for impact analysis between the anchor and pipeline (or, subsea if they were buried). Three soil types were considered: loose sand, dense sand and soft clay by applying the Mohr-coulomb model to the seabed. The buried depth was assumed to be 0 m, 1 m and 2 m. In conclusion, a subsea pipeline was the most stable when buried in dense sand at a depth of 2 m to prevent impact damage.

하천을 횡단하는 관로를 매설할 경우 하상변동으로 인해 관로가 드러나는 사고가 발생할 수 있으며 이를 방지하기 위해서는 안전한 매설경로를 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 금강을 횡단하는 도수관로의 안전한 매설구간 선정을 위해 2차원 수치모형을 이용하여 흐름해석 및 하상변동 분석을 수행하였다. 20년 빈도 홍수량을 적용한 모의 결과, 전반적으로 하상이 퇴적되는 것으로 나타났으나 교각의 영향을 받는 구간에서는 관로 매설 깊이 2 m 이상의 침식이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 극한 호우 사상에서도 교각 상류와 근접한 부근에서 관로매설 위치까지 침식이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 교각위치에서 상류 약 140 m 까지는 교각의 영향으로 하상침식이 매설된 관로에 영향을 미칠 것으로 예상된다. 상류 150 m 이후에 위치한 관로 횡단경로들은 하상 침식에 대해 상대적으로 안정적일 것으로 판단되어 안전을 고려하여 이를 도수관로 횡단경로의 최적구간으로 선정하였다.

This paper presents the effect of varying boundary conditions such as ground subsidence, internal pressure and temperature variation for buried pipelines on failure prediction by using a failure probability model. The first order Taylor series expansion of the limit state function incorporating with von-Mises failure criteria is used in order to estimate the probability of failure mainly associated with three cases of ground subsidence. Using stresses on the buried pipelines, we estimate the probability of pipelines with von-Mises failure criterion. The effects of varying random variables such as pipe diameter, internal pressure, temperature, settlement width, load for unit length of pipelines, material yield stress and pipe thickness on the failure probability of the buried pipelines are systematically studied by using a failure probability model for the pipeline crossing ground subsidence regions which have different soil properties.

매설 천연가스배관의 두께는 ANSI B3l.8의 요건에 따라 주로 내압과 위치인자로 결정된다. 그러나 실제 매설배관 응력에는 내압뿐아니라 여러 외부인자들이 작용하여 매설조건과 환경조건이 변화되면 배관의 응력이 달라진다. 환경요인 변화에 따른 안전도 감소를 피하기 위하여 응력을 평가하는 작업이 수시로 필요하다. 내압, 토하중, 차량하중, 지반침하에 의한 매설배관의 응력을 계산하는 적절한 수식이 개발되었으나 비전문가가 사용하기에 매우 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 매설배관의 응력상태를 손쉽게 계산할 수 있는 컴퓨터 프로그램을 개발하였다. 프로그램은 토하중, 차량하중, 열하중 및 네 가지 지반침하 발생시 배관에 생기는 최대응력을 계산하는 것으로서, 응력은 수식 또는 FEM에서 유추한 그래프에서 얻은 값이다. 본 논문에서는 첫 번째 논문에 이어 프로그램 작동방법과 원리를 설명하였다.

Recently, because of development of the high speed train technology, the vibration loads by train is significantly increased ever than before. This buried gas pipelines are exposed to both repeated impact loads, and, moreover, they have been influencing by vibration loads than pipeline which is not located under vehicle loads. The vibration characteristic of pipeline is examined by dynamic analysis, and variable is only train speed. Since an effect of magnitude of vibration loads is more critical than cover depth, as increasing the train speed, the vibration speed of buried pipelines is also increased. The slope of vibration velocity is changed by attenuation of wave, at train speed, 300 km/h. From the analysis results, the vibration velocity of pipelines is satisfied with the vibration velocity criteria which are established by Korea Gas Corporation. The results present operation condition of pipelines under rail loads has fully sound integrity based on KOGAS specification.

This study was initiated to examine the stress and deformation characteristics of the pipelines which were subjected to various environmental conditions in order to confirm their integrity. As the part of them, this paper presents the analysis results for the effect of ground subsidence combined with main loads on buried natural gas pipelines. The ground subsidence which can occur for buried gas pipeline has been classified to the three cases. Finite element method was used to analyze the effect of ground subsidences on pipeline of 26 inch(0.660 m) and 30 inch(0.762 m) diameter used as high pressure ($70 kg_f/cm^2(6.86 MPa)$) main pipelines of KOGAS. This paper shows the result of stress analysis for the pipelines subjected to those three case ground subsidence. Comparing these results with safety criterion of KOGAS(0.9 $\sigma_y$), maximum allowable settlement and loads have been calculated.

We have examined the effect of values of subgrade reaction coefficient on the dynamic responses(displacement and strain responses) of the buried concrete pipeline of which the end boundary condition is the fixed ends. We have carried out the dynamic analysis of mode superposition method with representative values of coefficient of subgrade reaction applicable to the classified rock masses. We have found that the effect of subgrade reaction coefficient on the dynamic responses of the pipeline appears noticeable for the seismic waves having relatively high frequency and low apparent propagation velocity.

This work reports results of our study on the dynamic responses of the buried pipelines both along the axial and the transverse directions under various boundary end conditions. We have considered three cases, i.e., the free ends, the fixed ends, and the fixed-free ends. We have studied the seismic responses of the buried pipelines with the various boundary end conditions both along the axial and the transverse direction. We have considered three cases, i.e., the free ends, the fixed ends, and the fixed-free ends for the axial direction, and three more cases including the guided ends, the simply supported ends, and the supported-guided ends for the transverse direction. The buried pipelines are modeled as beams on elastic foundation while the seismic waves as a ground displacement in the form of a sinusoidal wave. The natural frequency and its mode, and the effect of parameters have been interpreted in terms of free vibration. The natural frequency varies most significantly by the soil stiffness and the length of the buried pipelines in the case of free vibration, which increases with increasing soil stiffness and decreases with increasing length of the buried pipeline. Such a behavior appears most prominently along the axial rather than the transverse direction of the buried pipelines. The resulting frequencies and the mode shapes obtained from the free vibration for the various boundary end conditions of the pipelines have been utilized to derive the mathematical formulae for the displacements and the strains along the axial direction, and the displacements and the bending strains along the transverse direction in case of the forced vibration. The negligibly small difference of 6.2% between our result and that of Ogawa et. al. (2001) for the axial strain with a one second period confirms the accuracy of our approach in this study.
