1 Introduction
In this study, we explore trenchless, internal replacement pipe repair
technologies as a versatile solution for rehabilitating aging natural gas pipelines.
Our focus is on assessing the impact of adhesion between the host pipe and the
structural internal replacement pipe repair system under four point bending
deflection loading. By utilising experimental, numerical, and analytical techniques,
we aim to provide a thorough understanding of the factors contributing to the
system's performance. The findings offer new insights into developing trenchless
repair techniques to enhance system performance and extend service life. Image courtesy of Warren Environmental
