Abstract Summary
In its race towards climate neutrality by 2050, the European Union seems to be betting on green hydrogen as a high potential energy source. The French government seems to prioritize the reuse of gas networks for the transportation of H2. However, the substitution of gas by hydrogen leads to an evolution of the mechanical characteristics of steel pipelines increasing their vulnerability vis à vis external stresses, which raises a number of scientific and technical questions. The aim of this study is to synthesize the research work in the literature addressing the behaviour of buried pipelines subjected to various ground movements.
