A classical analysis of Irwin and Corten relates the minimum pressure to sustain crack propagation along a pipeline to the dimensions, elastic modulus and fracture resistance of the pipe wall. Although the model is inapplicable to gas pressurisation, it is here modified to become sufficiently accura

## A new small-scale test method has been developed for generating steady-state rapid crack propagation in plastic pipe. Using this method, a series of exploratory tests are used to investigate the variation in critical pressure (i.e. the threshold of crack self-arrest) with parameters which are s

Rapid crack propagation can occur along pressurised pipelines of polyethylene, if a well-defined (but as yet unpredictable) crifical pressure is exceeded. The standard for type-testing of pipe to meet exacting service conditions is currently set by full-scale tests. Results from the British Gas ful

Detection of water leaks in buried distribution pipes using acoustic methods is common practice in many countries. Correlation techniques are widely used in leak detection, and these have been extremely effective when attempting to locate leaks in metal pipes. However, a number of difficulties have
