Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline engineering, and particularly relates to a calculation method for the shear force and rotation angle of a rigid pipeline joint affected by uneven deformation of the bottom soil mass. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous acceleration of the urbanization process, the construction and maintenance of the underground pipeline system have increasingly become key facilities to ensure the normal operation of the city. The pipeline joint is a weak link in the pipeline structure and is more vulnerable to the influence of external loads. Once the seal fails, leakage will occur, leading to more extensive damage. At present, in the design of underground pipelines, although there are certain load calculation standards and methods, most of them are only applicable to continuous pipelines. The design and evaluation of pipeline joints are crucial, which directly affect the overall stability and safety of the pipeline system.

[0003] When uneven deformation occurs in the bottom soil mass of the pipeline, the pipeline may experience local deformation or inclination. Especially in rigid pipelines, this kind of deformation often concentrates at the pipeline joint part. Due to the structural characteristics of the rigid pipeline joint, the rigidity at the joint restricts the degree of freedom of its deformation, which will lead to stress concentration at the joint, increasing the risk of cracks or damage at the joint. Uneven deformation may also cause local bending or compression of the pipeline, affecting the overall stability and sealing performance of the pipeline. Especially under long-term service conditions, it may lead to the failure or leakage of the pipeline joint. Summary of the Invention
