BExplains why pipeline stress corrosion cracking happens and how it can be prevented/b/
Pipelines sit at the heart of the global economy. When they are in good working order,
they deliver fuel to meet the ever-growing demand for energy around the world. When
they fail due to stress corrosion cracking, they can wreak environmental havoc./ This
book skillfully explains the fundamental science and engineering of pipeline stress
corrosion cracking based on the latest research findings and actual case histories.
The author explains how and why pipelines fall prey to stress corrosion cracking and
then offers tested and proven strategies for preventing, detecting, and monitoring
it in order to prevent pipeline failure./ iStress Corrosion Cracking of Pipelines/i
begins with a brief introduction and then explores general principals of stress corrosion
cracking, including two detailed case studies of pipeline failure. Next, the author
covers:/ ulliNear-neutral pH stress corrosion cracking of pipelines/liliHigh pH stress
corrosion cracking of pipelines/liliStress corrosion cracking of pipelines in acidic
soil environments/liliStress corrosion cracking at pipeline welds/liliStress corrosion
cracking of high-strength pipeline steels/li/ul The final chapter is dedicated to
effective management and mitigation of pipeline stress corrosion cracking. Throughout
the book, the author develops a number of theoretical models and concepts based on
advanced microscopic electrochemical measurements to help readers better understand
the occurrence of stress corrosion cracking./ By examining all aspects of pipeline
stress corrosion cracking'the causes, mechanisms, and management strategies'this book
enables engineers to construct better pipelines and then maintain and monitor them
to ensure safe, reliable energy supplies for the world
