Section 1: Annotated Bibliography Cole, I. S. & Marney, D., 2012. The science of pipe corrosion: A review of the literature on the corrosion of ferrous metals in soils. Corrosion Science, Volume 56, pp. 5-16. Citations 145Buried pipes and scientific exposure experiments acknowledge that there are effects from movement in soilsSoil processes such as water movement and transport of oxygen or electro chemicals contributes to corrosion in rusty metalsCole & Marney (2012) discuss the techniques behind pipe corrosion in ferrous metals to recommend a multiscale model for corrosion in pipes installed in soil.Macroenvironmental factors affect pipelines because of the soil processess.*Soil processess include water movement from rainfall, oxidation from air and soil, and electrochemical activties. Lab research indicates that the extensive exposure to environmental factors increases corrosion risks in pipes (Taylor, 2015).
Gomes, W. J., Beck, A. T. & Haukaas, T., 2013. Optimal inspection planning for onshore pipelines subject to external corrosion. Reliability Engineering & System Safety, Volume 118, pp. 18-27. Citations 50Design parameters should have an effective measure of pipe failure rates in order to lower the cost of maintenance.Interval sampling provides an effective risk management approach for checking pipe failure rateInterval inspections is necessary for continuous operations which require maintenance (Gomes, et al., 2013)Optimization of resources for regular inspection is cost effective and enhances safety of an offshore pipeline.*In order to optimize on the operation of pipeline systems, it is critical to have an effective repairschedule that checks for robustness.
Challenges arise in the event of multiple pipelines, which may fail in accuracy and complex defects.[ CITATION Gom14 \l 1033 ]Bazan, F. A. V. & Beck, A. T., 2013. Stochastic process corrosion growth for pipeline reliability.Corrosion Science , Volume 74, pp. 50-58. Citations 39Engineering variables influence decisions on the reliability of a pipe and its performance management. Reliability evaluation tools incorporate safety checks to assess complex pipelinesBazan & Beck (2013) identify gaps found in the linear models of corrosion processess in pipe works such as defects in pipe diameters, size, and depth.Procedural and enginering challenges contribute to the pipe corrosionThere are different models of forecasting linear corrossion in different circumstances.
