Abstract
The problem of reconstruction of a continuous spatial line of a pipeline by the discrete points measured with some error is solved For the problem solution a noniteration numerical algorithm is proposed according to which each measured point of the pipeline is treated as a compliant support The algorithm is based on the method of initial parameters and accounts for the concept of “an incompatibility angle” between two adjoining measured sections of a pipeline axis Using methods of the probability theory the analysis is performed which allows one to assess the accuracy of the reconstructed position of a pipeline and obtained stress values Accuracy of calculations executed by means of the developed algorithm has been verified using the results obtained by analytical methods
