... transformation have been incorporated into the simulation. Residual stresses have been measured using the X-ray diffraction technique along the outer surface of the pipe and using the deep-hole drilling technique through the wall thickness at the center of the weld. Good correlation has been demonstrated between...

...Guillermo Ramirez; Michael D. Engelhardt A collapse pressure test was conducted on a full-scale diameter prototype composite offshore drilling riser. The test specimen was a carbon fiber-epoxy filament-wound tube, approximately 56.4 cm outside diameter and 3.05 cm wall thickness. The tube...
