Centrifuge Model Design for Axially Loaded Structures Under Large Ground Movements

These experiments were designed to investigate the interference of rigid boundaries on axial pipe pull test results. These experiments were run in CU Boulder's 15g-ton centrifuge, and a series of 20 tests were conducted varying the boundary's proximity to the pipe model. The force-displacement curves of each test are included as raw data (model scale), processed data (prototype scale), and plotable data (prototype scale). The data can be used to determine the force-displacement relationships for axially pulled pipelines.
