Almost all alloys corrode or rust to an extent. Corrosion is a type of oxidation, and rusting is a component of corrosion. Rusting occurs when the alloy is in contact with air and humidity, resulting ...
Introducing transient analysis to pipeline integrity management (IM) is strongly recommended when crater-type corrosion defects are present and when threshold criteria are more rigorous than usual.
The pole material selection process is complex, considering the multiple options available in different corrosive and environmental conditions. Pole materials available for transmission utilities ...
