description Pipeline network system has been the most vital infrastructure for several needs ranging from residential, industrial, oil and gas, aerospace, automotive and many more.

Therefore, a proper structural health monitoring on the pipeline system is vital to ensure optimum safety of users and efficient transportation of liquid and gas. The objectives of this study are to investigate the natural frequency of the pipeline, establish a machine learning algorithm for pipeline damage detection and demonstrate numerically the applicability of machine learning in defect identification on a pipeline.
