Flux-conserving Finite Element Methods
We analyze the flux conservation property of the finite element method. It is shown that the finite element solution does approximate the flux locally in the optimal order, i.e., the same order as that of the nodal interpolation operator. We propose two methods, post-processing the finite element solutions locally. The new solutions, remaining as optimal-order solutions, are flux-conserving ele...
متن کاملMagnetic Flux Leakage Investigation of Interacting Defects: Competitive Effects of Stress Concentration and Magnetic Shielding
The magnetic flux leakage (MFL) method is used for in-line inspection of oil and gas pipelines. Corrosion-induced MFL signals are sensitive to the level of stress and magnetic flux density existing in the pipe wall. Defects act as stress raisers, locally influencing the magnetization of the material, and subsequently the path of flux flow. Two adjacent corrosion pits can furthermore complicate ...
متن کاملEffeci's of Stress on Magnetic Flux Leakage and Magnetic Barkhausen Noise Signals
Pipelines are pressure vessels. Their enviable safety record compares weil with other transportation modes. Typical pipeline fatality rates are about 1% those of rail or air which are, in turn, about 1% of highway fatalities. Pipeline safety is first assured by rigorous inspection during pipe manufacture and line construction. All welds are inspected using radiography to detect voids and ultras...
متن کاملNumerical simulation and experiments of magnetic flux leakage inspection in pipeline steel
The magnetic flux leakage (MFL) method is currently the most commonly used pipeline inspection technique. In this paper, numerical simulation and experimental investigation on defect inspection in pipeline steel using MFL were carried out. In theoretical analysis, typical three-dimensional (3D) defects were accurately modeled and detailed MFL signals in the test surface were calculated by 3D fi...
متن کاملA Multipoint Flux Mixed Finite Element Method
We develop a mixed finite element method for single phase flow in porous media that reduces to cell-centered finite differences on quadrilateral and simplicial grids and performs well for discontinuous full tensor coefficients. Motivated by the multipoint flux approximation method where sub-edge fluxes are introduced, we consider the lowest order Brezzi-Douglas-Marini (BDM) mixed finite element...
