... state design differs from conventional design methods in that each failure mode is specifically addressed (e.g. burst, collapse, local buckling, fracture due to insuffi- cient strain capacity of the pipe wall, fatigue). Based on an extensive theoretical and experimental research programme, guidelines...

... an optlmum internal geometry for the Y- connection a programme of scale model testlng was undertaken at a commercial research centre. The aim of thls programme was to develop an Internal profile and geometry which would allow unhindered passage of a representative range of plgs over a varlety of flowrates...

... speed, and economical benefits. A programme for development of the FBW technique was therefore started by Statoil and McDermott. This programme has consisted of two phases, the first was a study of X65 pipe materials behavior under simulated FBW thermal cycles. In the second phase, real flash butt welds...
