Dynamic behaviors of buried reinforced concrete pipelines with gasketed bell-and-spigot joints subjected to tunnel blasting vibration

Reinforced concrete pipelines with gasketed bell-and-spigot joints are widely spread in urban areas. The jointed concrete pipe is vulnerable subjected to blasting vibration induced by adjacent tunnel blasting excavation, which may lead to serious consequences to residents and tunnel construction. However, research on the dynamic response of jointed pipe under impact loads is vague. For analyzing the impact of blasting vibration on adjacent...
