Impact from falling objects can easily cause the local deformation of pipeline, which threatens the safe and stable operation of pipeline. In order to study the dynamic response behavior of impacted buried pipelines in cold regions, the buried pipelines, frozen soil and falling objects are taken as the object. Considering the nonlinearity of pipeline material, the contact nonlinearity between pipeline, falling objects and frozen soil, a double nonlinear dynamic analysis model of buried pipeline in cold regions is established by explicit dynamic analysis method. The rationality of the model method is verified by comparing the curves in this paper with those from the experiment. Furthermore, the changing laws of dynamic response of pipeline influenced by different factors are discussed. The results show that: when the buried depth of pipeline is 2 m, the deformation and residual stress of pipeline increase with the increase of pipeline's diameter-tothickness ratio, the impact velocity of falling object and the water content of frozen soil, and the impact velocity of falling objects influences the dynamic response behavior of pipelines most significantly, followed by the diameter-thickness ratio of pipelines and the water content of frozen soil; When the diameter-thickness ratio of the pipeline is 58, the deformation and residual stress of pipeline decrease with the increase of buried depth by 75 % and 88 % respectively. Among the four influencing factors, when the impact velocity of falling objects is 10 m/s and the buried depth of pipeline is 3 m, the deformation amplitude of pipelines caused by falling objects is the smallest. It is suggested that in the high-risk regions of falling objects, the diameter-thickness ratio, buried depth and the water content of frozen soil can be reasonably controlled under the condition of predicting the maximum potential impact velocity of falling objects, so as to improve the ability of the pipeline to resist external impact damage, which provides theoretical basis and quantitative control standards for the impact design of pipeline engineering in cold regions.
