Abstract: A method for assembling two tubes (1, 2) made from thermoplastic materials, that involves welding by heating two applied rotational contact surfaces of two parts of two tubes (1, 2), respectively, arranged end to end or overlapping coaxially (XX′). The method involves induction heating of at least one conductive welding element (4), arranged at the interface (3) between the two contact surfaces, by generating a magnetic field at said conductive welding element or elements, such that the melting of the thermoplastic materials constituting said contact surfaces produces a continuous and sealed weld at said interface on at least one closed loop along the entire perimeter of said interface.

Abstract: A method of monitoring mechanical behavior of an undersea pipe (2) transporting fluid under pressure and made by assembling a plurality of unit pipe elements (4). A calibration step is performed consisting of using a measurement cable having an optical fiber sensor to measure deformations experienced by each pipe element while it is subjected on land to various mechanical stresses in predetermined directions and magnitudes, and, on the basis of the measurements, establishing the mechanical signature of each pipe element. A monitoring step is performed consisting of using a measurement cable (18) having an optical fiber sensor that makes uses Brillouin backscattering and is helically positioned at constant pitch (p) on each pipe element with the handedness of the helical pitch alternating for two adjacent pipe elements to recover variations in optical signal injected into the sensors while the pipe is in service.
