“…There are two directions for study of the external load of the pipes; one is the ground load including traffic load [ 11 , 12 ], collapse impact load [ 13 ], and ground circular loads [ 14 ] etc. Another direction is the effect of geology and soil layers, including seismic response [ 15 , 16 ], geotechnical loads [ 17 ], soil subsidence [ 18 , 19 ], and soil layer displacement [ 20 , 21 , 22 ], etc. When the buried depth of the pipes gradually deepens, the influence of the ground load on the pipes becomes smaller, and the influence of the soil gradually increases.…”
