Abstract: This paper describes the specifications recommended by the authors for buying linepipe in grades up to X-70 for wet, sour service. The linepipe is tested to verify that it is resistant to ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional model to predict flow behavior for stratified smooth and stratified wavy two-phase flow is presented. The velocity profiles in both the liquid and the gas are assumed to be ...

Abstract: Problems inherent in boiler design owing to the phenomenon of high-temperature oil and coal-ash corrosion are reviewed. Experience and research are discussed, together with the design philosophies ...

Abstract: The paper presents a series of experiments carried out with a cylinder suspended by springs and placed very close to a plane wall. The cylinder is exposed to a steady current. The range of ...

Abstract: The tensile stress-strain behavior of ligaments and tendons begins with a toe region that is believed to result from the straightening of crimped collagen fibrils. The in situ mechanical function ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the scour below pipelines exposed to a current. In a typical field situation, the scour pattern along a pipeline is not uniform; the scour holes are interrupted with ...

Abstract: Accurate prediction of air transport parameters in variably saturated soil is a prerequisite for realistic modeling of soil vapor extraction (SVE) systems for cleanup of contaminated soil sites. Improved models for estimating ...

Abstract: Vapor sorption of volatile organic chemicals (VOC) to soil minerals becomes the dominant VOC sorption mechanism at low soil-water contents, but is not included in traditional VOC transport and fate models. A two-parameter ...
