Buckling of polymer pipes under internal pressure
Abstract In this work, the buckling phenomenon of slender pressurized pipes under concentrically applied indirect axial force is experimentally and theoretically investigated. The axial force is applied via a frictionless piston. The deformation trend of a polyvinylchloride pipe sample under this compressive axial force is monitored by means of a number of strain gauges. The strain readings are processed by a computer equipped with strain processing software. The buckling modes as well as the buckling load of the system are thus experimentally determined. To describe the stability behaviour of the pipe analytically, several theoretical models are employed and the buckling phenomenon in such a pressurized pipe is analytically ascertained. Numerical values for the critical buckling loads are also obtained. The experimental and theoretical buckling studies are correlated. Through these correlations, the buckling of pressurized pipes under indirect axial pressure is substantiated and an appropriate theoretical model to describe the phenomenon is established.
