This solution allows for quick estimation of the maximal stress concentration factor, which is a measure of the risk level posed by the defect in the thin-walled structures (pipelines, vessels).
I knew the basics – that industrial process tomography is a technology that creates images of industrial processes in challenging places, such as an oil pipeline, a vessel or a hazardous environment – but I discovered a lot more through my research, which was beneficial when it came to both my application and interview.
Important offshore storage sites could be served by pipelines or vessels.
The paper concerns the analysis of stress distribution in the area of welded joints with angular distortion that may appear on the large welded pipelines or vessels.
The Downstream segment consists primarily of refining crude oil into petroleum products; marketing of crude oil and refined products; transporting crude oil and refined products by pipeline, marine vessel, motor equipment and rail car; and manufacturing and marketing of commodity petrochemicals, plastics for industrial uses and fuel and lubricant additives.
As part of large scale application of CO2 capture and storage, million tons CO2 per year have to be transported by pipelines and/or vessels from capture to storage sites.
The last several decades have witnessed remarkable advances in smart materials, which will play a significant role in the areas of aerospace structures, transportation vehicles, maritime and offshore structures, wind turbine blades, pipelines, pressure vessels, civil engineering structures, medical devices and implants, household products, sports equipment, and other areas.
Additional file 2: CellProfiler pipeline for vessel segmentation and clustering in CD31 labelled tissue slides.
Granted, the exhibits of pipelines and seismic vessels may have been over the heads of many grade-schoolers.
They were transferring the gas from the pipeline to a vessel lying in the nearby Warri River when the explosion occurred, they said.
