Development and Validation of an automated Ultrasonic system for the Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) of welded joints in thermoplastic storage tanks (PolyTank)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
Plastics tanks are normally designed for a finite life, usually between 15 and 25 years. However, due to economic pressure many of these tanks are still in operation beyond their design life, often with little or no engineering justification. It is also not uncommon for plastics tanks to be used for storing chemicals that they were not designed to contain. For these reasons it is important that op ...

Development and Validation of an Automated Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE) Approach for Testing Welded Joints in Plastic Pipes (TestPEP)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,
Plastics pipes offer significant advantages over other materials such as cast iron, steel, copper and concrete, for the transportation of fluids such as natural gas, water, effluent and corrosive liquids. They do not corrode; have a longer predicted service life, leading to less frequent replacement; they are less expensive to install due to their light weight and flexibility; and have significant ...
