In-Service Welding : Thermo-Mechanical Analysis for Burn-Through Possibility in Gas Pipelines

Project BackgroundThe project aimed to assess the potential occurrence of burn-through on a gas pipeline during in-service welding, a critical concern for operational safety. Methodology and ApproachUtilizing ABAQUS, our team implemented a subroutine to apply a non-uniform distributed flux, accounting for time, position, and temperature during heat transfer analysis. Additionally, a FORTRAN script was developed, […]
