Shaking Table Test on the Seismic Response of Buried Oil and Gas Pipelines under the Bidirectional Nonuniform Seismic Excitation by Jianbo Dai, Chengtao Hu, Li Wang, Guidi Zhang

“…The soil displacement curve starts to smooth out when the loading level reaches 1.0 g, and the axial displacement decreases, which indicates that the interaction between the pipe and soil is more intense and the relative motion between the pipe and soil is more obvious under the nonuniform excitation, and the soil is more likely to be damaged and enter the nonlinear stage. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and design the seismic performance of buried pipes considering the nonuniform seismic excitation.…”
