This paper aims to investigate the effect of pitting corrosion on stress concentration factor
(SCF) for a spherical pressure vessel subjected to internal pressure. Stress concentration at …

Local corrosion defects of the pipeline and the ground settlement in the geotechnical
engineering problem area pose a huge threat to the integrity and safety of the buried steel …

Corrosion defects were primary causes for pipeline burst failures. Traditional methodologies
simplified the realistic irregular-shaped defects as uniform ones, ignoring the effects of …

Corrosion defect is the primary inducement for pipeline burst failures. Natural-occurred
defects appear in the form of pitting clusters, exhibiting randomness and irregularity in local …

In the present study, microscopic and tensile tests are carried out on specimens corroded in
the atmosphere for 33 years to quantitatively analyze the degradation of corroded Q235 …

This study introduces a numerical simulation method for corroded circular hollow section
steel columns, utilising a newly developed corrosion evolution model. This model was …

Two steel pressure vessels, part of an air compressor unit, failed during hydrostatic test at a
pressure lower than proof pressure. Pressure drop and fluid leakage was noted during the …

Pitting corrosion is frequently existed in offshore pipelines adversely influencing the ultimate
strength. This paper dealt with the residual ultimate strength of the pipelines with uniform …

Pitting corrosion defect is a common defect in pipelines employed in the oil and gas industry.
This paper explores the mechanical behavior and failure pressure (P f) of the pipelines, and …

Steel is becoming increasingly popular due to its high strength, excellent ductility, great
assembly performance, and recyclability. In reality, steel structures serving for a long time in …
