Impact Characterization of Line Pipe Steels by Means of Standard, Sub-Size and Miniaturized Charpy Specimens

February 10, 2015

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon, Christopher N. McCowan, Raymond L. Santoyo

Modern line pipe steels are characterized by a continuously increasing ratio between ductility and mechanical strength, which makes it difficult to interpret the results of conventional Charpy impact tests. For such tests, the extremely high absorbed

Direct Comparison of Single-Specimen Clamped SE(T) Test Methods on X100 Line Pipe Steel

September 29, 2014

Author(s)

Timothy S. Weeks, Enrico Lucon

The clamped single edge-notched tension (SE(T)) specimen has been widely used in a single-specimen testing scheme to generate fracture resistance curves for high strength line-pipe steels. The SE(T) specimen with appropriate notch geometry is a low

Testing of Small-Sized Specimens

September 26, 2014

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon

An extensive review of the current state-of-the-art of small specimen test technology (SSTT) has been presented, covering a number of experimental techniques aimed at characterizing the mechanical properties of materials and components through the use of

Fracture Toughness Characterization of High-Pressure Pipe Girth Welds Using Single-Edge Notched Tension SE(T) Specimens

August 28, 2014

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon, Timothy S. Weeks, James Gianetto, W. R. Tyson, D. Y. Park

The safety and reliability of large-diameter pipelines for the transport of fluid hydrocarbons is being improved by the development of high-strength steels, advanced weld technologies and strain-based design (SBD) methodologies. Strain-based design imposes

July 23, 2013

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon

This Certification Report documents the procedures used to develop certified values of maximum force (Fm) and absorbed energy (KV) for the following KLST-type miniaturized verification Charpy V-notch impact specimens: SRM 2216 (low-energy level, Fm = 2

Certified Miniaturized Charpy Specimens for the Indirect Verification of Small-Size Impact Machines

June 27, 2013

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon

Small specimen test techniques are becoming ever more popular as the need increases to characterize mechanical properties by use of the smallest possible amount of material, due to various restrictions on material availability, irradiation, testing space

Effect of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) on Charpy Test Results from Miniaturized Steel Specimens

December 11, 2012

Author(s)

Enrico Lucon

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a manufacturing process whereby a desired shape is obtained through electrical discharges between an electrode and a workpiece, separated by a dielectric fluid. EDM produces a damage layer on the surface of the
