Abstract

The applications of steel pipelines for oil and gas transportation have grown over the past three decades. Due to the biological, service life performance, economical issue and human safety, it is important to keep a safe performance for oil/gas pipeline and to evaluate their serviceability under uncertainties including environmental issues (i.e. corroded defects) and applied loads (i.e. internal pressure). The accurate estimation of structural performance as load capacity-based burst pressure of steel pipes under corroded defects can be provided a robust design in service life. Therefore, predicting the residual strength of pipelines with corrosion defects is an important problem in these kinds of industrial structures. A one of oriented design relation of corroded burst pressure models is the ASME B31G which was presented by the American national standard Institution (ANSI). In the term of PCORRC criterion, Stephens and leis (2000) presented a mathematical model based on exponential nonlinear function using experimental results for low and moderate-strength steels. Generally, the shape of corrosion was considered as a rectangular form using DNV RP F101 (2004) for low and moderate-strength steels. Zhu and Leis (2005) applied the material hardening behavior in the mathematical model for prediction of corroded burst pressure. The presented model is extracted from X80 steel grade while it may be not covered the vast categories of steel pipes. (Ma et al., 2013) applied the Ramberg-Osgood relationship for material in finite element models (FEM) of steel pipes under single corrosion. However, they did not discuss the different yield strains of materials. The FEM have been used for computing the strength capacity of corroded pies by (Mechri et al., 2016), (Hieu et al., 2017) and (Shuai et al., 2017), but the Ramberg-Osgood nonlinear martial model has not considered with different yield strains.
