  Pipe behavior under fault displacement is complex. In the past earthquake fault displacement of 2.1, 3 and 4 meters has been reported. Literature review shows understand failure modes of buried pipelines subjected to big fault displacement, is a challenge. In this paper, the influence of the thickness of the pipe on the response of the pipe under the fault displacement greater than 1 meter is studied. The quasi-static analysis by taking into pipe-soil interaction, by finite element simulation was performed with the ABAQUS software. Pipe and soil Dimensions and material properties of the soil and pipe is fixed in all analyzed. The fault displacement (0.2 to 3 meters) and the pipe thickness (from 8.2 to 20 mm) variable parameters of this article. For variable displacement faults and the thickness of the pipe, the pipe deformation After removing the fault, the thickness of the pipe and the amount of displacement of the fault on the behavior of pipe strain exists in the pipeline wall is extracted and discussed is located. The displacement of less than 1 meter, the pipes like the letter S and local buckling occurs in the pipeline. The displacement of 1.5 meters and more like the letter Z-pipe deformation and wrinkling occurs in the pipeline. The displacement of more than 1.5 meters, distortion, and wrinkling pipe is deformed. The displacement of more than 1 m by increasing the thickness of the pipe, the strain is reduced. Change the thickness of the pipe, the pipe failure mode changes. Manuscript profile
