Digital Twin Modeling of Composite pipeline structure health state through the Runge-Kutta neural network (RKNN) and Finite Element Models
An ECS technique is employed to measure electrical potential differences on composite pipeline surfaces, correlating with changes in dielectric properties from long-term water pressure loads inside.
A multi-physics FEM integrated with an RKRNN is designed for ECS-adorned GFRE composite pipelines under water pressure, enabling estimations of pipeline degradation by factoring in uncertainties from measurements, predictions, and other inputs.
A digital twin of the pipeline, reflecting quantified uncertainties, is created for real-time evaluations, predicting water absorption effects on pipe properties, facilitating damage identification, and promoting infrastructure resilience through stakeholder-informed decisions.
