Many listings and groupings of PoF exposures (threats) to pipeline systems are possible. Below is a fairly detailed example. It can be used to as…
Comparative Criteria Especially where quantitative acceptable risk criteria are not available, comparative risks are used to help judge acceptability. See examples and related discussions of…
Nuances of Exposure, Mitigation, Resistance In most instances, the categorization of each piece of information into one of these three is obvious—most variables are clearly…
As a worst-case scenario, as well as a means to easily incorporate the intuitive belief that large diameter can mean higher consequence, pipe failures can…
Open Source Solutions Specialized software is not required to perform robust risk assessments. In fact, common platforms offer significant advantages over commercial packages purportedly designed…
As part of the estimation of overall Resistance, the stress-carrying capacity must be understood. This in turn requires understanding of loads and stresses acting on…
On our way to overall Resistance estimation and, as a part of Effective Wall Thickness determinations, here is some background on stress-inducements that must inform…
As part of the stress-carrying capacity concept underlying Resistance estimations, the use of ‘effective wall thickness’ is introduced here as a modeling convenience. Resistance Estimation…
