...Hugh Goyder The offshore oil and gas industry uses corrugated pipes because of their flexibility. Gas flowing within these pipes interacts with the corrugations and generates noise. This noise is of concern because it is of sufficient amplitude to cause pipework vibration with the threat of fatigue...

...Xiaoguang Huang; Yanyun Chen; Kai Lin; Musa Mihsein; Kevin Kibble; Richard Hall Accurately predicting the burst strength is very important in the casing design for the oil and gas industry. In this paper, finite element analysis is performed for an infinitely long thick walled casing...

... for the oil and gas industries and to propose operating limit conditions for different types of loading. To achieve these objectives, a probabilistic assessment program incorporating a first-order reliability method (FORM), second-order reliability method (SORM), and Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) technique...
