Experimental and theoretical investigations of ground settlement around submerged defective pipelines
Subsurface settlement is often triggered by soil erosion above underground defective pipelines. However, there is currently insufficient research on calculation methods for estimating ground settlement caused by defective pipeline. In this work, a series of laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the impacts of the soil particle size, hydraulic gradient, thick-span ratio, and full pipe flow velocity on ground settlement around submerged defective pipelines. A sensitivity analysis was performed to further examine these factors. The experimental results revealed that there are three settlement modes, primarily determined by soil skeleton particle size and the thick-span ratio. The full pipe flow velocity and hydraulic gradient significantly affected the settlement range, with the settlement range increasing as either the flow velocity or hydraulic gradient increased. Additionally, a new calculation model based on Manning’s equation was developed to predict soil settlement. The error between the calculation and experiment results was less than 15%, demonstrating the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method.
期刊介绍:
Transportation Geotechnics is a journal dedicated to publishing high-quality, theoretical, and applied papers that cover all facets of geotechnics for transportation infrastructure such as roads, highways, railways, underground railways, airfields, and waterways. The journal places a special emphasis on case studies that present original work relevant to the sustainable construction of transportation infrastructure. The scope of topics it addresses includes the geotechnical properties of geomaterials for sustainable and rational design and construction, the behavior of compacted and stabilized geomaterials, the use of geosynthetics and reinforcement in constructed layers and interlayers, ground improvement and slope stability for transportation infrastructures, compaction technology and management, maintenance technology, the impact of climate, embankments for highways and high-speed trains, transition zones, dredging, underwater geotechnics for infrastructure purposes, and the modeling of multi-layered structures and supporting ground under dynamic and repeated loads.
