Three-Dimensional Response of Buried Pipe under Vehicle Loads

Published: Jul 8, 2003
Abstract
The live loads may significantly affect the performance of buried pipe, particularly under shallow burial. Response of the buried pipe under vehicle loads is investigated here using three-dimensional finite element analysis. The analysis is conducted using the finite element program ANSYS. The study revealed that the influence of pipe on stress due to vehicle load is insignificant if the burial depth is 1.5 times the diameter. Therefore...
