Abstract:

In previous studies, the pipeline is usually regarded as an independent system, and there is no connection between the pipe sections, while for the same pipeline, there is often a connection between the pipe sections due to the same internal pressure, the material of each section is not very different, and other similar corrosion environments [1 ].
The size of the pipe in the axial direction is much larger than the size of the other directions, for the pipe, rope and such one-dimensional length of the engineering structure is very large size effect [2], in the calculation of the pipe reliability, the pipe should be regarded as a continuous system, cannot be regarded as a simple component, if the correlation between the pipe segments is not taken into account will cause a large error [ 3][4 ]. In view of this, this paper explores the influence of correlation between pipe segments on the probability of pipeline failure on the basis of previous research by scholars.
