چکیده
The implementation of pipeline inspection functionalities in EIVAs 3D modelling tool, NaviModel3, has brought together a series of tools on a single platform. The tools can be used either simultaneously or one-by-one in a fully integrated solution, that has been developed with focus on 3D visualization in order to provide a highly intuitive and optimized environment for the post-processing. The solution includes: Cleaning functionalities, automaticas well as manual methods Conventional Digital Terrain Modelling tools in a 3D environment Comprehensive 3D visualization functionalities Dedicated pipeline inspection functions: Pipetracker functions Digitization functions Automatic placing of the pipe object Generation of cross-profile side-flags, standardas well as user defined Video integration Offline eventing Generic exporting functionalities

On The In-pipe Inspection Robots Traversing Through Elbows
A general robotic mechanism was presented for in-pipe inspection oflevel pipes with varied diameter or curved pipelines. The robot employed three legs comprised of parallelogram linkages mechanism which enables adapting to various elbow joints in the piping systems. The curvatures in pipeline are the most important constraints in front of the robot through navigation process. To study the adapt...
متن کاملAn Optimization Algorithm for the NP-hard 3D Gallery Guarding Problem and its Application on Autonomous Pipeline Inspection
This paper introduces a hierarchical optimization algorithm to an open NP-hard 3D guarding problem for massive data sets. The proposed hierarchical integer linear programming (HILP) algorithm can find the fewest spots necessary to cover an entire given 3D region. Efficiently solving this problem can greatly benefit autonomous pipeline monitoring and inspections. Unlike most existing pipeline in...
متن کاملAdded Resistance of an AUV Moving Inside a Water Pipeline Due to Wall Proximity
This paper evaluates the added resistance of a torpedo shape AUV, moving inside a water pipeline, due to wall effects within the tube. Today, there are long length pipelines of water or petroleum that need to regular inspection. Early detection of failure will help to prevent breakdown and avoid the huge cost of an accident. As pipelines are enclosed environments and difficult to access, pipeli...

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...
