A Surrogate Model for Evaluation of Maximum Normalized Dynamic Load Factor in Moving Load Model for Pipeline Spanning due to Slug Flow

Understanding the problem of slug-flow-induced fatigue damage is of particular importance to the reliable operation of pipelines. Slug flow, across unsupported pipeline spans, produces dynamic vibrations in the pipeline resulting in cyclical fatigue stresses. These dynamic effects will cause the pip...
