COMPOSITE PATCH REPAIR FOR MARINE AND CIVIL ENGINEERING INFRASTRUCTURE APPLICATIONS (CO-PATCH)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"The basic concept of the present work is the definition of an effective repair method for large steel structures with defects. Two basic steel structural types will be dealt with in this work, namely marine structures and steel civil engineering structures. The objective of this project is to demonstrate that composite patch repairs can be environmentally stable and therefore, that they can be us ...

Risk-Based Expert System for Through–Life Ship Structural Inspection and Maintenance and New-Build Ship Structural Design (RISPECT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"The primary objective of the RISPECT project is to use ship structural inspection results (coating condition, corrosion, cracks and deformation) along with the calculated expected results to guide future inspections required to achieve a minimum structural reliability.This “probabilistic inspection planning” is not new but this project takes the method a stage further to use data from large numbe ...

DIsmantling of Vessels with Enhanced Safety and Technology (DIVEST)

Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Policy-makers are in dire need of up-to-date objective scientific data to support their decision making as applied to ship dismantling. The objective of the Project is to “define a integrated risk and economic framework” applicable to the optimisation of ship dismantling activities and infrastructure, from a social, economic and environmental point of view. The framework will apply across the lif ...

High Quality Tube and Pipe Production by Hybrid Welding (HQ-TUBES)

Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2010,

"Hybrid laser-arc welding offers many advantages compared with conventional arc or laser welding. The process does, however require a high level of control if high quality welds are to be produced. This proposal tackles the issues of weld quality and productivity improvement for manufacturing pipes through development of advanced sensors for the hybrid laser-arc welding process. Hybrid process dev ...
