ROSEN offers a combined inline inspection (ILI) service for Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) methodology and the Ultrasonic Testing (UT) with one inspection tool. These two methodologically independent measurements with one ILI run enable to supply a combined inspection service with many operational and qualitative benefits. The case study presented is based on a representative amount of high qualit...

Corrosion of reinforcing and prestressing steel due to chloride contamination is one of the primary causes of deterioration of concrete structures. A review of published literatures shows that the research on the deterioration of mechanical properties of reinforcing steel is more than that on prestressing strands, even though the corrosion of prestressing strands may trigger structural collapse...

introduction temporal and spatial change of meteorological and environmental variables is very important. these changes can be predicted by numerical prediction models over time and in different locations and can be provided as spatial zoning maps with interpolation methods such as geostatistics (16, 6). but these maps are comparable to each other as visual, qualitative and univariate for a lim...

The potential for chemicals to cause skin corrosion or skin irritation is an important consideration in establishing procedures for the safe handling, packing and transport of chemicals. The determination of skin corrosion and irritation potential is therefore included in international regulatory requirements for the testing of chemicals. The standard approach used involves applying the test ma...

In order to control the corrosion in pipelines, it is important to understand the underlying corrosion mechanisms and predict ion of it’s initiation and means of mitigation. This paper reviews the electrochemistry of corrosion, it’s kinetics and thermodynamic nature, with respect to CO2 and H2S effects in propagating corrosion in oil and gas pipeline system. The phenomenon of polarization and i...

â  using of prediction models is one of the methods of financial performance prediction. financial ratios are employed as predictive variable in prediction models. the main purpose of this study is to compare the incremental information content of accrual and cash ratios for prediction and evaluation of the financial performance of business entities by data mining models. in align with research...

Corrosion of steel reinforcement is a major factor in the deterioration of highway and bridge infrastructure. A survey of the condition of a reinforced concrete structure is the first step towards its rehabilitation. A rapid, cost-effective and non-destructive condition survey offers key information on the evaluation of corrosion, and aids in the quality assurance of concrete repair and rehabil...

Durability problem of reinforced concrete for underground structures is a hot issue in the field of structural engineering. For underground structures, the prediction of structural service life and methodology for durability design are needed to estimate structural durability. Taking the case of Xiamen Xiang’an subsea tunnel as background, which is designed to meet the requirement of 100-year s...
