An Exponential Matrix Method for the Buckling Analysis of Underground Pipelines Subjected to Landslide Loads

Abstract

  Due to their dimensions, long pipelines often cross areas that are highly susceptible to landslides. In Italy, this problem requires special attention, as many slow-moving landslides interact with buried pipelines. The paper analyzes such interaction problem with particular reference to buckling analysis, tackling the solution of the governing equations by an exponential matrix method. In the paper the basic equation, its computational aspects and numerical analysis options are outlined. Representative results of the proposed methodology and potential applications on buckling analysis of buried pipes are presented.
