Effect of Installation Practices on Galvanic Corrosion in Service Lines, Low Flow Rate Sampling for Detecting Water-Lead Hazards, and Trace Metals on Drinking Water Pipeline Corrosion: Lessons in Unintended Consequences
Corrosion of drinking water distribution systems can cost water utilities and homeowners tens of billions of dollars each year in infrastructure damage, adversely impacting public health and causing water loss through leaks. Often, seemingly innocuous choices made by utilities, plumbers, and …

Implementation of vibration-based structural health monitoring technique for identification of simulated corrosion damage in steel pipeline using neural network
Corrosion defect has inevitably causes serious incidents in pipeline structures. Reduction in corrosion related incidents are highly desirable due to safety and cost efficiency. Current approaches have implemented destructive testing which highly cost and time consumptions. Moreover, the techniques …
