Abstract: A cubic spline inter po lating technique fo r appro x imating the dented pipeline profiles in bo th longitudinal and circumferential
directions w as pr oposed. T his method can be used to determine the strains of pipeline w ith inspectio n data of dent. T he pipeline dent
was evaluated by using strain- based cr iteria. T he r esult s o bta ined fro m the cubic spline interpolation metho d ar e in g ood ag reement
with those o f the f inite analyses when the st rain o f pipeline was less than 9% . T he new method can meet the requir ement of eng ineering evaluat ion. A ccor ding to ca lculatio n result, the length co rr esponding to ha lf of dent depth sho uld be taken as calculation leng th o f
dent, w hile calculat ing strain of pipeline based on the pipeline inspectio n data. T he evaluatio n r esults o f pipeline dents w ith different
depths sugg ested that the pipeline dent evaluat ion sho uld be based on both strain cr iteria and depth criter ia.
Key words: pipeline dent; surface co nt our; cubic spline interpolation method; dent length; ev aluatio n cr iteria
