Machine vision (MV) is the term applied to a series of methods and technologies which are used in industry to inspect and analyze products and data. These uses include process control, robot guidance, ...

In the last two decades, results obtained from structural reliability analysis (SRA) have increasingly led to formation of strategies for future safe operation of corroding oil and gas pipelines. 1-8 ...

We study variational mesh adaptation for axially symmetric solutions to two-dimensional problems. The study is focused on the relationship between the mesh density distribution and the monitor ...

Researchers have improved flaw detection to increase confidence in metal parts that are 3D-printed using laser powder bed fusion. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National ...

This concluding article of two focuses on application of a reliability-based pipeline condition-assessment methodology to the assessment of an in-service corroded oil pipeline. Part 1, in last week's ...
