Submerged Pipeline Laying by TPP (Taisei Pipe in Pipe) Method

Optimal Wear for a Laying Pipe

Abstract The optimal design of the Morgan Construction Companies’ laying pipe is investigated. This crucial component of their rolling mill equipment suffers from rapid, uneven wear. During the 2003 Mathematical Problems in Industry Workshop, a team of ten investigators from five universities and one national laboratory developed a pipe design approach intended to minimize and evenly distribute...

Global opportunities in Pipe in Pipe technology

An extensive product range is mandatory to be a key player in the pipe insulation market. The polyurethane preinsulated pipe producers are responding to global opportunities by diversifying their activities into industrial, marine, oil and gas applications. Moreover, the requirements for traditional district heating preinsulated pipes including initial thermal conductivity and its ageing perfor...

Auto-Pipe: A Pipeline Design and Evaluation System

Auto-Pipe is a tool that aids in the design, evaluation and implementation of pipelined applications that are distributed across a set of heterogeneous devices including multiple processors and FPGAs. It has been developed to meet the needs arising in the domains of communications, computation on large datasets, and real time streaming data applications. In this paper, the AutoPipe design flow ...

In-Pipe Inspection Crawler Adaptable to the Pipe interior Diameter

One of the most important requirements of repairing and maintaining of pipelines is the ability to monitor and evaluate the pipe’s interior. In this paper, a novel apparatus to traverse pipes is introduced. The mechanism employs three independent rubber track units which are circumferentially spaced out 120 degree apart symmetrically. The apparatus employs an active mode to adapt to a wide rang...
