  1. A NEW SMART PROCESS FOR PIPELINE INTEGRITY MONITORING

    Most of the prospecting areas used for hydrocarbon exploitation in the Niger Delta were originally virgin lands but has suffered urban encroachment such that any hydrocarbon loss of containment would lead to pollution, loss of lives, major fires, and loss of major assets. Pipeline loss of …

  2. An experimental study of forced ventilation glovebox fires

    … study was performed to investigate the integrity of gloveboxes when subjected to lathe drip pan fires. These fires are potentially dangerous since glovebox failure may allow hazardous gases to escape containment. A full scale mockup of a glovebox and corresponding air flow system was constructed. …

  3. Guardrail Height Safety Requirements Given Recent Crash History and Evolution of Vehicle Design

    … roadway safety, providing a critical last line of defense in preventing vehicles from leaving the roadway and impacting potential hazards. As vehicles are ever changing, it is necessary for guardrail design to adapt in response. Many contemporary vehicles such as sport utility vehicles and light …

  4. Numerical and experimental methods for seismic risk assessment of civil and industrial structures

    Due to high seismic vulnerability and severity of possible failure consequences, petrochemical installations are often considered as “special risk” plants. Although tanks, pipes, elbows and bolted flanges have been a major concern in terms of seismic design, generally, they have not been analysed …
