Non-Destructive Testing in Ducts using Guided Waves.
In the following article, we will explore an innovative and effective technique used in the field of non-destructive testing: Non-Destructive Testing of pipelines using Guided Waves or Long-Range Ultrasonic Testing (LRUT).
Through this method, sound waves are employed to detect material losses in pipelines without the need to take them out of service. We will see how this technique has become a widely used tool for the rapid detection of corrosion in pipelines with a wide inspection area. We will also analyze the fundamentals of long-range ultrasonics and how guided waves are applied to identify and locate hidden internal defects in pipelines.
In addition, we will delve into the equipment used and the inspection characteristics that make this technique an efficient and reliable option to ensure the integrity of pipelines and reduce operational costs. Discover how this methodology has become a fundamental pillar for the maintenance and safety of pipelines in various industries.
Numerical Modeling Linked to Failure Analysis - Second Ed.
Interest Publication: Numerical Modeling Linked to Failure Analysis (2nd ed). Application Examples
In this Second Delivery, its author, Anibal Marquez, presents us with the various uses that Finite Element Analysis (FEA) can have, which is commonly widely used in the design and manufacturing stages to make decisions that optimize the cost-benefit relationship.
The central topic of this publication, the use of FEA (Finite Element Analysis) in failure analysis, is then addressed, including its characteristics, implications, and peculiarities.
Finally, three application examples are presented, illustrating the variety of situations where the assistance of FEM is indispensable for the conclusion of the Failure Analysis.
