1. IntroductionUrban pipeline facilities play a vital role in energy transportation, clean water supply, and wastewater discharge in urban areas, thereby significantly improving the living conditions of urban residents. However, as pipes age, they may undergo degradation due to factors such as corrosion, geological subsidence, or improper plumbing and digging. This deterioration can lead to economic losses and hazardous incidents [1].
