Abstract
The interactions between the buried pipeline and tunnelling-induced ground movement are studied in this paper, in which the jointed pipeline, Pasternak foundation, and the detachment are considered. A mathematical model using the pulse function is provided to simplify the jointed pipeline to a continuous pipeline with additional local rotations. The determination of detachment is used by the usual iteration method. The finite difference method is utilized to obtain the numerical results. The results calculated by our proposed method agree with the experimental data of centrifuge tests and are close to those obtained by the other methods. The deflection and bending moment of the jointed pipeline can be predicted reasonably, as well as its detachment location. Parametric analyses about the main influencing factors are carried out. The stiffness reduction factor is significant to the discontinuous behavior of the jointed pipeline. During the parametric analyses, the detachment beneath the jointed pipeline sometimes happens and sometimes does not. The responses of the jointed pipeline and its detachment require priority attention.
