Dynamic response of pipelines under impact and harmonic loading

This study deals with the dynamic response of pipelines under flexural loads. The flexural loads can be harmonic (transmitted by pumps, compressors, etc.) or transient (seismic loads, foundation movement and impact for pipeline inspection). Existing works provide solutions in the frequency domain or in the time domain. However, the methods in the frequency domain cannot simulate the pipeline response under transient loading and the methods in...
