Fitness For Service Evaluations In Petroleum And Fossil Power Plants

Forty papers from the July 1998 Conference balance the four legs of the assessment chair--analysis (ductile and brittle fracture including creep crack growth and LTA behavior); NDE and monitoring (ultrasonics, acoustic emission, eddy current, technology transfer, among others); materials behavior (weldment failure modes, hydrogen attack and cracking, toughness estimation, reheat cracking, advanced alloys, and creep modeling); and codes and standards (insights into API, ASME, and many European organizations).
