Analytical Study of Foundation - Soil - Pipe Interaction

摘要

Pipes and pipelines are structural element have important substantial. Pipes gives various services for example transmit of fluid. The evaluation of structural behavior more necessary and more effect. In this paper, a three dimensional finite element model is achieved by using numerical method to study the static interaction between soil and pipe when it is path under statically loaded foundation. The paper studying the influence of buried depth, embedment ratio, foundation thickness, soil type, pipe diameter, pipe wall thickness and pipe rigidity on vertical displacement. In addition, investigation of shear force and bending moment developed into the pipe. The ANSYS program is utilized in this study.
