Fatigue Flaw NDE Reference Standard Development - Phase I Feasibility Study

November 1, 2012
Author(s)
Mark D. Richards, Joseph D. McColskey, Dash Weeks
A feasibility study was performed to evaluate a novel method of accurately fatigue cracking steel plates to generate fatigue proposed fatigue crack reference standards. Fatigue cracks were introduced into low carbon steel reference plates in which the

EFFECT OF ETHANOL FUEL AND MICROBIOLOGICALLY INFLUENCED CORROSION ON THE FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH BEHAVIOR OF PIPELINE STEELS

Jeffrey W. Sowards, Timothy S. Weeks, Joseph D. McColskey, James R. Fekete, Jain Luke, Charles H. Williamson
Ethanol fuel production and consumption is expected to increase significantly in the near future. Existing pipeline infrastructure could be repurposed to transport ethanol and other biofuels from production sources, such as those located in the Midwest, to

Fatigue Pre-Cracking Curved Wide Plates in Bending

September 27, 2010
Author(s)
Mark D. Richards, Timothy S. Weeks, Joseph D. McColskey, Bo Wang, Yong-Yi Wang
In support of using high strength steels for strain-based design of pipeline, curved wide plate (CWP) tests in tension are being performed on API 5L X100 pipes of 36-inch (916-mm) diameter and 0.75-inch (19-mm) wall thickness. The CWP tests are being used
