... of the thickness of the isolation layer, the development of the maximum tensile and compressive strain of the pipeline is significantly reduced for the same fault displacement, resulting in a significant increase in the critical fault displacement corresponding to the three failure modes of the pipeline...

... the effects of structure parameters on the pipe's mechanical behavior and failure modes. The results show that the matrix is the weakest part of the composite pipe under spherical indenter load, the failure areas of each fiber layer change for winding angle. The ultimate load decreases with the increasing...

... thickness combinations are considered to further investigate the effect due to different component thicknesses. e-mail:  feng293@purdue.edu 1 Corresponding author. e-mail:  guzey@purdue.edu 18 03 2021 01 10 2021 06 12 2021 failure mode storage tanks API 12F finite...

... independent; that is, the probabilistic characteristics of the uncertain variables involved in these limit state functions do not vary with time. Three different failure modes are assumed to be associated with a given failure due to equipment impact, namely, rupture (or full-bore rupture), large leak...

... to foreign object interference in a check valve. It is clearly demonstrated that the evaluation of different types of failure modes such as disk wear and check valve leakage were successful by systematically analyzing the characteristics of various AE parameters. It is also shown that the leak size can...
