Book Review of the Performance of High Strength Steels Used Offshore

Download or read book Review of the Performance of High Strength Steels Used Offshore written by Health and Safety Executive Staff and published by . This book was released on 2003-09-19 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High strength steels (yield strength >500MPa to typically 700MPa) are increasingly being used in offshore structural applications including production jack-ups with demanding requirements. They offer a number of advantages over conventional steels, particularly where weight is important. This review considers the types of steel used offshore, their mechanical properties, their weldability and their suitability for safe usage offshore in terms of fracture, fatigue, static strength, cathodic protection and hydrogen embrittlement performance. In addition, this review addresses the performance of high strength steels at high temperatures and at high strain rates. It outlines the difficulties in working with the very limited published codes and standards and discusses performance in the field. Current design restrictions such as limits on yield ratios, susceptibility to hydrogen cracking including the influence of SRBs, and the management of the behaviour of such steels in seawater under cathodic protection conditions are discussed. Recommendations are made to encourage the wider use of high strength steels in the future and areas where further study is required are identified.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welded High Strength Steel Structures Understand the impact of fatigue on high strength steel joints with this comprehensive overview High strength steels are highly sought after for industrial and engineering applications ranging from armored vehicles to welded engineering components built to withstand considerable stress. The mechanical properties of welded joints made from high strength steel are integrally linked to the specific welding process, which can have an enormous impact on fatigue performance. Welded High Strength Steel Structures: Welding Effects and Fatigue Performance provides a comprehensive analysis of high strength steel joints and the ramifications of the welding process. It guides readers through the process of performing thermal analysis of high strength steel structures and evaluate fatigue performance in the face of residual stress. The result is a volume with innumerable use cases in engineering and manufacture. Welded High Strength Steel Structures readers will also find: An author with decades of experience in research and engineering Numerous studies of various classes of high strength steel joints Studies on tubular structures for welding residual stress Welded High Strength Steel Structures is a must-own for welding specialists, materials scientists, mechanical engineers, and researchers or industry professionals in related fields.

Book Ageing and Life Extension of Offshore Structures

Download or read book Ageing and Life Extension of Offshore Structures written by Gerhard Ersdal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive overview of managing and assessing safety and functionality of ageing offshore structures and pipelines A significant proportion, estimated at over 50%, of the worldwide infrastructure of offshore structures and pipelines is in a life extension phase and is vulnerable to ageing processes. This book captures the central elements of the management of ageing offshore structures and pipelines in the life extension phase. The book gives an overview of: the relevant ageing processes and hazards; how ageing processes are managed through the life cycle, including an overview of structural integrity management; how an engineer should go about assessing a structure that is to be operated beyond its original design life, and how ageing can be mitigated for safe and effective continued operation. Key Features: Provides an understanding of ageing processes and how these can be mitigated. Applies engineering methods to ensure that existing structures can be operated longer rather than decommissioned unduly prematurely. Helps engineers performing these tasks in both evaluating the existing structures and maintaining ageing structures in a safe manner. The book gives an updated summary of current practice and research on the topic of the management of ageing structures and pipelines in the life extension phase but also meets the needs of structural engineering students and practicing offshore and structural engineers in oil & gas and engineering companies. In addition, it should be of value to regulators of the offshore industry.
