Pipe systems research focuses on the design, construction, maintenance, and performance of various types of pipes used in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. This includes investigating the materials, sizing, and layout of piping systems to ensure efficient and safe transportation of fluids, gases, or solids. Research in this area also explores innovative technologies and materials to improve the longevity, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness of pipe systems. Some specific topics within this research area may include fluid dynamics, corrosion prevention, leak detection, and pipe network optimization.
