Abstract:Piping made from thermoplastic fiber reinforced polymer composites (TP-FRPCs) is receiving increasing attention in the oil and gas industry. Creep and time-dependent behavior is one of the main factors defining the service life of TP-FRPC structures. The lifetime and time-dependent behavior of TP-FRPC structures can be predicted using simulation tools, such as finite element analysis, to aid in the design optimization by modeling the long-term behavior of the material. Composite material time-dependent propert… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
