It is the core goal to establish reasonable system architecture during the summary design phase of dam safety monitoring system (DSMS) development. At first, measure point comprehensive information model (MPCIM) is built as the key object to DSMS. Then its attributes and operations are analyzed to form inherent class hierarchies and to complete database design. At last, subsystems are divided to establish...
Logarithmic risk and safety incidence indices for application in the risk assessment for a large population that is subjected to some forms of common hazards such as disease or natural disasters, are introduced. For a limited size population, more appropriate likelihood indices are derived for the comparison of hazardous activities that are peculiar to a small population that is engaged in a hazardous...
Advanced methods of well completion (e.g. horizontal drilling) and secondary recovery have the potential to extend our hydrocarbon resource base until alternatives can be brought onstream in the required quantities. Structural integrity management (SIM), also know as platform reassessment and rehabilitation, is a key to extending the useful life of offshore platforms which support these activities...
New API structural integrity management recommended practice and post-hurricane inspection bulletin, MMS proposed changes to CFR's on decommissioning, and increased interest in developing risk based inspection plans for offshore assets require better understanding of reliability principles. This paper will discuss the fundamentals of RBI from a practical viewpoint and gives details of recently published...
Condition based risk management (CBRM) is a process developed by EA Technology in conjunction with several major electricity companies to assist with the tasks of defining, justifying and subsequently targeting spending to achieve defined levels of performance. The process has delivered major benefits. If fully embraced, CBRM can provide the basis for effective asset management programmes that address...
