Steel beams with web openings are increasingly employed in modern construction to serve both structural and utilitarian functions. The presence of cut‐outs in the web enables the passage of mechanical ...

Temperature, initial slope imperfections, and downward restraints on a pipeline all affect its propensity for upheaval buckling. A restrained pipeline is subject to compressive loads as the ...

An analysis of the response of buried continuous pipelines to active faults has led to development of a design guideline for both onshore and offshore pipelines at fault crossings. A fault movement ...

Long subsea pipelines, never laid in a perfectly straight line to begin with, tend to move over time. It’s a problem exacerbated by the high-temperature, high-pressure conditions in which pipelines ...
