The pipeline project: Pre-publication independent replications of a single laboratory's research pipeline

Fuzzy consequence modelling of hydrocarbon offshore pipeline

The traditional event tree analysis uses a single probability to represent each top event. However, it is unrealistic to evaluate the occurrence of each event by using a crisp value without considering the inherent uncertainty and imprecision a state has. The fuzzy set theory is universally applied to deal with this kind of phenomena. The main purpose of this study is to construct an easy metho...

Operation of a Pipeline

The Pipeline from CAD to Virtual Reality in VISIONAIR Project

The VISIONAIR project aims at federating and providing a unique access to advanced visualization resources available at research centers and universities from Israel and other 11 countries in Europe. The physical visualisation facilities are supported by the Virtual Visualisation Service Infrastructure providing repositories of shape models and archives of tools for their creation and processin...

Analysis of the causes affecting the occurrence of occupational accidents in fly-in / fly-out workers of a gas pipeline dispatching project

Introduction: Prevention of occupational accidents is of a great importance. Analysis of accidents and their causes could prevent the accidents recurrence. The study objective was to investigate the causes of occupational accidents in a dispatching project. Material and method:  This research is descriptive-analytic. Data were extracted from the reports of occupational near-misses and accident...

Patrolling a Pipeline

A pipeline network can potentially be attacked at any point and at any time, but such an attack takes a known length of time. To counter this, a Patroller moves around the network at unit speed, hoping to intercept the attack while it is being carried out. This is a zero sum game between the mobile Patroller and the Attacker, which we analyze and solve in certain cases.
