Hello 2226

Evidently English is not your first language, and you do not know how to use the Spell-check facility in your text editor box at CR4 Forum.

The Spell-checker is the small "ABC with a green tick below it" button second on left from the "Help" button.

So I have translated your <"....upheval bukling...."> as "upheaval buckling".

You will need to advise exactly what sort of upheaval buckling you are interested in, because there are many different causes, some listed here:

  1. Pipeline in Permafrost - causing upheaval buckling
  2. Thermal expansion of pipeline - causing upheaval buckling
  3. Thermal contraction of pipeline - causing upheaval buckling
  4. Tectonic Plate movement - causing upheaval buckling
  5. Landslide - causing upheaval buckling
  6. Temblor (Earthquake) - causing upheaval buckling
  7. Flotation caused by empty pipeline and fluidised covering soil - causing upheaval buckling
  8. Impact by ship, plane, large object, or vehicle - causing upheaval buckling
  9. Underwater turbidity current - causing upheaval buckling
  10. Other - Advise please - causing upheaval buckling

Once specifics are known, you may well get a proper answer.

Kind Regards....

Another example/cause could conceivably be upward movement of a vertical downbend location (without adequate thrust restraint) in an "unrestrained" joint pipeline (I agree the poster should provide more information in the request).

I am very sorry for that mistake.

I want to know, what is meant by imperfection height in the calculation of upheaval buckling of buried pipelines??

Can anybody provide me the formula for the calculation with some reference?

In Alaska it was done by not burying the pipe line, but instead supporting/bridging it above ground. Maybe a search for Alaska pipe line could lead you to some answers?

You did not say if "your" pipeline is buried or not, already; or where it is, or would be, located . . . if other than in a homework or treatise assignment.
