Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With most of the easy gas and oil reserves discovered and prices rebounding, companies are now drilling far offshore in extreme weather condition environments. As deepwater wells are drilled to greater depths, engineers and designers are confronted with new problems such as water depth, weather conditions, ocean currents, equipment reliability, and well accessibility. Offshore Structure Design, Construction and Maintenance covers all types of offshore structures and platforms employed worldwide. The ultimate reference for selecting, operating and maintaining offshore structures, this book provides a road map for designing structures which will stand up even in the harshest environments. The selection of the proper type of offshore structure is discussed from a technical and economic point of view. The design procedure for the fixed offshore structure will be presented and how to review the design to reach the optimum solution. Nonlinear analysis (Push over) analysis will be presented as a new technique to design and assess the existing structure. Pile design and tubular joint with the effect of fatigue loading will be presented also from a theoretical and a practical point of view. With this book in hand, engineers receive the most up-to-date methods for performing a structural life cycle analysis; implement maintenance plans for topsides and jackets, using non destructive testing. Under water inspection is discussed for hundreds of platforms in detail. Advanced repair methodology for scour, marine growth and damaged or deteriorating members are discussed. Risk based under water inspection techniques are covered from a practical pint of view. In addition, the book will be supported by an online modeling and simulation program with will allow designers to save time and money by verifying assumptions online. - One stop guide to offshore structure design and analysis - Easy to understand methods for structural life cycle analysis - Expert advice for designing offshore platforms for all types of environments - Save time and money by verifying designs online

Book Welding of Tubular Structures

Download or read book Welding of Tubular Structures written by Sam Stuart and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welding of Tubular Structures focuses on the testing, processes, and techniques involved in welding tubular structures in different environments and conditions. The book stresses that the analysis of weldment testing is valuable to the structural integrity of every welded material. Presenting the literature of various authors who have conducted experiments and tests on this topic, the book starts by outlining the testing measures done on weldments on offshore structures, hangars, towers, and other edifices. These discussions are backed up by numerical representations to support the claims of authors, particularly on the effectiveness of the techniques used in welding. The book also presents a comparative study on the behavior of steel, aluminum, and other materials when subjected to stress. This discussion is followed by experiments to test the strength of the welded materials. Much attention is given when these materials start to crack and suffer from fatigue. With this in consideration, analysis is particularly devoted to the research on why these welded materials fail. The text is a vital source of information to those in the welding sector, particularly those working in offshore structures.

Book Adhesive Joints  Formation  Characteristics and Testing

Download or read book Adhesive Joints Formation Characteristics and Testing written by Kash L. Mittal and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-01-27 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume documents the proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Adhesive Joints: Formation, Characteristics and Testing held in Newark, NJ, May 22-24, 2000. Since the first symposium, held in 1982, there had been tremendous research activity dealing with many aspects of adhesive joints. This volume contains a total of 21 papers, which were all properly peer reviewed, revised and edited before inclusion. Therefore, this book is not merely a collection of unreviewed manuscripts, but rather represents information which has passed peer scrutiny. Furthermore, the authors were asked to update their manuscripts, so the information contained in this book should be current and fresh. The book is divided into three parts: 1) General Papers; 2) Evaluation, Analysis and Testing; and 3) Durability Aspects. The topics covered include: molecular brush concepts in enhancing strength of adhesive joints; factors affecting performance of adhesive joints; substrate preparation and modification; interfacial/interphasial aspects; determination of locus of failure; analysis and evaluation of adhesive joints using various techniques; testing of adhesive joints; stress analysis; application of fracture mechanics; durability aspects; accelerated environmental degradation of adhesive joints; solvent uptake; and adhesives with special characteristics. This volume represents a commentary on the current R&D activity in this arena and it should be of great value and interest to anyone interested in adhesive bonding / adhesive joints. Furthermore, this volume contains a number of excellent review/overview articles, which should be of particular value.
