Abstract: Dents and corrosion are two types of defects commonly found on pipelines. Although major efforts have been made to assess the defects of each type, there is a limited understanding of interaction between the two defects ...

Abstract: The integrity assessment of dents in liquid pipelines, as regulated by codes and standards, is based mostly on depth and threat integration, with strain analysis incorporated as a nonmandatory recommendation for gas ...

Abstract: The assessment of reliability levels associated with the design and safety factors (DFs and SFs) is important for modern pipeline engineering to achieve probabilistic design using a conventional deterministic format. To ...
