Crack in Corrosion Flaw Assessment in Thin-Walled Pipe
(University of Waterloo, 2014-08-28)Pipelines are a safe and efficient method for transporting high volumes of oil and gas. However, aging pipelines may experience flaws, such as cracks or corrosion. Present approaches include detection, assessment and repair ... -
Detection of Sub-Millimeter Surface Cracks using Complementary Split-Ring Resonator
(University of Waterloo, 2012-07-25)Many interesting ideas have emerged from research on electromagnetic eld interactions with di erent materials. Analyzing such interactions has extracted some essential proper- ties of the materials. For example, extracting ... -
MODELS FOR ASSESSMENT OF FLAWS IN PRESSURE TUBES OF CANDU REACTORS
(University of Waterloo, 2009-04-26)Probabilistic assessment and life cycle management of engineering components and systems in a nuclear power plant is intended to ensure safe and efficient operation of energy generation over its entire life. The CANDU ... -
Stress Intensity Factor for a Crack Embedded in an Infinite Matrix under the Assumption of Plane Micropolar Elasticity
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-27)In last few decades, studies on defining mechanical behaviour of materials with significant microstructure have increased drastically. This is due to the lack of compatibility between the experimental data of mechanical ...
