Experimental Testing Conducted in the Course of the GIPIPE Project and Their Numerical Simulation
The experimental results of the GIPIPE project are presented in this chapter, supported by numerical simulations from rigorous finite element models. In the first part of the chapter, the experiments conducted at CSM facilities, in Sardinia, are described

Preface
Quite often, pipelines transporting water and energy resources, cross regions with extreme terrains associated with geohazards, including seismic fault action, landslides, soil subsidence or liquefaction. On the other hand, the growing society demands for energy resources require unhindered delivery. These two requirements, in conjunction with the increasing stringency of environmental restrictions, impose important challenges to pipeline engineers. Nowadays, “Geohazards and Pipelines” constitutes a hot topic in pipeline engineering research and practice. Nevertheless, despite the fact that this topic started attracting significant attention in the late 2000s and in the 2010s, there is still a lack of relevant pipeline design guidance, and this has been the principal motivation for the GIPIPE project. The idea for the GIPIPE project has been discussed extensively in the la
