Abstract
methodology for cost optimal reliability based inspection and replacement planning of piping subjected to CO2 corrosion is described. Both initial (design phase) and in-service [...]
Abstract
global emission inventory of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions with 1° × 1° latitude-longitude resolution was compiled for 1990 on a sectoral basis. The sectoral sources considered [...]
Abstract
The consequences of a dynamic fracture in a gas-transmission pipeline require that pipelines be designed to avoid such incidents at a high level of certainty. For this reason, [...]
Abstract
The focus of this paper is to discuss the special design and operating considerations on receipt of materials at a terminal from a pipeline that is used to transport both [...]
Abstract
Initiation of environment-induced cracks in pipeline steels involves interactions among microstructural features, loading conditions and environmental variables. Cyclic, or [...]
Abstract
In order to protect pipelines against corrosion and stress corrosion cracking NOVA Gas Transmission (NGT) has employed a dual system involving the application of an insulating [...]
Abstract
With a rapid development of the digital signal processor in recent years, a full digital control system for the superconducting section of APT is designed and implemented [...]
Abstract
International audience; FACES is an autonomous and coordinated embarked (on board) conflict solver for Free Flight airspace. It solves conflict by computing simple manoeuvres [...]
Abstract
During the past 20 years the Australian Pipeline Industry has achieved significant economic improvements in the design and construction of natural gas transmission pipeline [...]
Abstract
Damage to pipelines in the form of indentations and third-party damage has emerged as a key concern for operating reliability and public safety within the pipeline industry. [...]
Abstract
Erosion is a common problem at pipeline watercourse crossings. Watercourses are naturally vulnerable to erosion but the risk is particularly acute after sub-soil and armour [...]
Abstract
Pipeline river crossings pose a significant challenge for pipeline owners and environmental regulators to balance the associated costs and risks, particularly where environmental [...]
Abstract
International audience; This paper addresses the classical graph partitioning problem applied to the air network. We consider an air transportation network with aircraft inducing [...]
Abstract
The stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of pipeline steels in coating disbondment chemistry (near neutral pH solution) was studied by using slow strain rate tests (SSRT), polarization [...]
Abstract
The increasing size and complexity of natural gas transmission and distribution systems in North America are leading to higher dependence on automated, remote communication [...]
Abstract
During the summer of 1996, the TransAlaska Pipeline System (TAPS) experienced pipe vibrations near Thompson Pass, which is located 25 miles north of the Valdez Marine Terminal [...]
Abstract
In the development of new pipeline projects, all too often assumptions that are made in the initial stages of the business development opportunity are, for the most part, [...]
Abstract
TransCanada PipeLines (TCPL) has developed a formalized in-line inspection management program to encompass all aspects of their inspection activities. The need for this formalized [...]
Abstract
Recent research on longitudinal pipe-soil interaction shows that traditional analysis models are inadequate and too conservative, especially when cohesive soils are involved. [...]
Abstract
The conflict prediction and resolution capability resident in the Center/TRACON Automation System (CTAS) has been enhanced and field tested. All-track processing (overflights, [...]
Abstract
Grade 550 (X80) pipeline steels are now the basis of a standard platform for the design and construction of large-diameter pipeline projects at NOVA Gas Transmission (NGT). [...]
Abstract
The study described in this paper originally only aimed at studying the human factors problems of airborne separation hi a Free Flight environment. However to define the Free [...]
Abstract
Gas purging, a process of displacing one gas by another gas, occurs on a routine basis in the natural gas industry when pipelines are purged into and out of service. In a [...]
Abstract
The objective of this research is to design and demonstrate an agent-based modeling and analysis tool for evaluating General Aviation (GA) pilot situation awareness under [...]
Abstract
There is an increasing demand for operators of transmission pipelines to maximise the throughput of their pipeline systems. This can be achieved relatively easily with new [...]
Abstract
Key variables in the design of pipeline systems are pump efficiency, equipment reliability, and throughput flexibility since they significantly influence the pipeline operating [...]
Abstract
It is commonly believed that bending and other secondary loading will reduce the rupture pressure of a corroded pipe. This paper shows through theory, full-scale tests and [...]
Abstract
This supporting document has been prepared to make the FDNW calculations for Project W-320 readily retrievable.
Abstract
This document outlines the responsibilities of DOE, DOE contractors, the commercial carrier, and other organizations participating in a shipping campaign of irradiated test [...]
Abstract
Sustainability as an unambiguous policy goal is not a priori secured, as is clearly shown in the transport sector, where the negative externalities are still increasing despite [...]

Abstract
This work studies the organization of less-than-truckload trucking from a contractual point of view. We show that the huge number of owner-operators working in the industry [...]
Abstract
Deregulation and open access in the natural gas pipeline industry has changed the gas business environment towards greater reliance on local energy flow rate measurement. [...]
