A Comparative Analysis on Sewer Structural Condition Grading Systems Using Four Sewer Condition Assessment Protocols
DownloadFall 2012
Pipeline condition assessment is a primary task in running an efficient urban asset management program because in the case of system failure, the consequences can be significant to both municipalities and users. Selecting a suitable assessment protocol is crucial for municipalities, since the...

Fall 2017
Pipelines form an integral component of the distribution network of oil and gas products, which have to be transported from production sites to markets far off where there is need for them. Pipelines thus have to traverse long distances and as any other structure are susceptible to damages with...

Spring 2017
Buried pipelines that share a common corridor with nearby overhead AC power lines experience voltage induction. The induced voltages can cause personnel safety and pipeline corrosion problems. Industry has a requirement to reduce the induced voltages below an acceptable level. In view of the...

Creation and Characterization of Ceramic/Polymer Bi-Continuous Composite Material for Hot-Bitumen Pipeline Coating
DownloadSpring 2015
Current composite materials base their capabilities from the dispersion of discrete reinforcing materials throughout a matrix. This method places too much reliance on the surface bond between matrix and reinforcing phase. By employing two continuous, interpenetrating materials, it is theorized...

Developing a Predictive Model of Near-Neutral pH Stress Corrosion Cracking of Underground Pipelines
DownloadSpring 2014
Near neutral pH Stress Corrosion Cracking (NNpHSCC) on underground oil and gas pipelines is an issue facing industry today. Determining where NNpHSCC is likely to occur and grow is an important aspect to developing an Integrity Management Program. This work focused on developing a predictive...

Early Stages Of Calcareous Soil Reclamation Along The TMX-Anchor Loop Pipeline In Jasper National Park
DownloadFall 2010
Research assessed early stages of calcareous soil reclamation along the TMX-Anchor Loop pipeline through Jasper National Park. Calcareous soils are low in nutrients and highly prone to erosion after disturbances. Four sites were established in each of five calcareous soils, and divided into three...

eHealth and mHealth Pipelines for Clinical Decision Support to Improve Medication Selection and Safety
DownloadFall 2015
Although much work has been done over the past decade on developing personalized and evidence-based medicine, such as diagnostic tests based on genetics to better predict patients' responses to therapy, stumbling blocks remain that have prevented knowledge, tests, and other pertinent...

Spring 2010
As the demand for oil and gas resources increases pipeline construction pushes further into the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. Consequently, these buried pipelines suffer much harsh environmental and complex loading conditions. Moreover, to increase the transporting efficiency, larger size pipes...
