Investigating and evaluating liquefaction of pipes buried in seabed
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
One of the most momentous phenomena in geotechnical engineering and marine structures is seabed instability caused by exceeding pore water pressure due to wave. Also by increasing application of pipes buried in seabed, examining these pipes efficiency possesses a specific importance as earthquake occurrence. Pipelines vulnerability to earthquake and its resulting liquefaction has been observed in many previous quakes and there are exhaustive reports in this regard. Liquefaction occurrence is one of the main reasons of buried pipes damages within earthquake. So in this paper in addition to vast studies, it has been tried to identify and evaluate buried pipes liquefaction using achieved experiences of similar researches in other parts of the world, and propose their stabilizing solutions by declaring effective parameters of pipe’s function versus liquefaction.
