ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF FRICTION FORCE ON THE STRAINS OF GAS PIPELINE USING THE HILBERT-HUANG TRANSFORM

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2016, Vol 268, Issue 4

Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of friction forces on strains of a gas pipeline pipe in conditions of static and dynamic load. The experiments were conducted on a 28-metre section of pipe laid in quartz sand haunching. The source of dynamic loads was artificially generated soil vibration of a pulse character, which can be interpreted as seismic-like waves of mining origin. The static loads were applied by means of an actuator, which allowed the setting of different values of tension force acting along the pipe axis. The dynamic strain and vibration acceleration of the pipeline were measured during the experiments at different values of tension forces. The recorded signals were subjected to the time-domain decomposition by using the Hilbert-Huang transform. The method allows for the correct decomposition of the primary signal that describes the non-stationary and nonlinear phenomena as a sum of quasi-harmonic components whose amplitudes and frequencies are the parametric functions of time. The analysis included the determination of the influence of friction force in contact between the pipe and the sand haunching on the parameters of dynamic strain signals.<br/><br/>
