PR-186-203813-R02 Pipeline Mid-wall Defect Detection and Fitness for Service Assessment
Authors: McMahan Tara , Padgett Barbara , Hanna Benjamin , Bubenik Tom
Published: August 2023

Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) within the wall of line pipe is a threat recognized by the pipeline industry; the industry could benefit from a standardize approach to determining threat susceptibility as well as a methodology to estimate the anticipated growth rate of HIC given a set of pipe design, environmental conditions, and operational parameters. The overall objectives of this project were to compile historical literature and references toward understanding HIC as a cracking mechanism and to develop preliminary susceptibility criteria for the threat of HIC. A better understanding of the threat of HIC will reduce product leaks and equipment emissions from all parts of the hydrocarbon transport and storage infrastructure as well as better prepare for the quickly approaching hydrogen economy.

A literature review on the current industry understanding of mid-wall HIC[1] was conducted. A summary of key factors influencing HIC and modern integrity management approaches for the phenomenon are summarized. Based on the literature review, gaps in published industry knowledge were identified.

A literature review was also conducted on the performance of non-destructive examination (NDE) techniques (both in-line and field) and their ability to detect and size mid-wall HIC. A description of the techniques (considering liquid and gas mediums for in-line technologies) and the current understanding of their performance are summarized. Several case studies that were used to assess non-destructive inspection performance are also summarized.

Based upon the current industry understanding of the mid-wall HIC mechanism, as well as the capabilities of NDE technologies, an integrity management framework was developed and is described.

As a result of the literature reviews, case studies, and framework development, a number of gaps in industry knowledge and experience were identified. Most importantly, there is a need for continuous improvement of NDE technologies. Results of the gap analysis should be used to drive work to mitigate the onset of mid-wall HIC and to identify the presence of mid-wall cracking so that the threat can be actively and effectively managed.

[1] The terms mid-wall cracking (MWC) and hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) are synonymous in this report.
PR-179-19601-R03 Evaluation of Online Analyzers for Multiple Gas Contaminants-Field Test
Authors: Vaughn Tim , Olsen Daniel
Published: August 2023

Operating companies currently use several analyzers per location to monitor gas streams throughout their operations. By replacing multiple analyzers with a single analyzer capable of measuring multiple contaminants, both capital and operations and maintenance expenditures can be reduced. A field trial of two commercially available on-line analyzers was conducted between February 2021 and February 2022. The analyzers (ABB LGR-ICOS 950, AP2e ProCeas) were sited at an operational gas compression facility, whose own process gas analyzers were used as reference analyzers for comparison ("Site Ref"). Measured data for contaminant species (CO2, O2, H2S, and H2O) were recorded at 5-second intervals, collected remotely, and compared to hourly data provided by site reference analyzers.

PR-685-184506-R09 Improve Upon Existing Tools to Estimate Hydrotechnical Concerns
Authors: Budzich Jeffrey
Published: August 2023

Evaluating risks for hydrotechnical threats at pipeline waterway crossings is important to maintaining pipeline integrity. Establishing standards and best practices for evaluating the risks associated with scour, bank erosion, and channel avulsion is essential to developing a consistent process that can be applied across a network of pipeline crossings and provide data to make decisions about prioritizing mitigation and monitoring. A specific detailed multi-step process with support from improved evaluation tools, including a pilot platform, that incorporates inventory, screening, desktop analysis, and site inspections can be applied to compile regional and local data from existing sources as well as site-specific information that informs risk assessment and identification of appropriate monitoring approaches and mitigation measures
PR266-18201-R01 CEPM for Turbochargers
Authors: Jones Byron
Published: August 2023

Documents methods and data necessary to identify a decline in turbocharger performance based on real-time and near-real-time operating data. The techniques allow for the identification of performance issues well in advance of critical performance loss. This continuous equipment performance monitoring allows for a managed overhaul rather than an unplanned outage.

The techniques were evaluated to determine their applicability to monitor performance of gas turbines with a focus on the axial compressor.

The methods were verified against field data with induced abnormal operating conditions to validate the efficacy of the models and to help the equipment operators diagnose the underlying conditions contributing to the performance decline.
PR-186-214508-R01 In-Service Welding onto Ethylene Pipelines
Authors: Boring Matt
Published: August 2023

Welding onto an operating pipeline, or in-service welding, for modification and repair has been used safely by pipeline operating companies for many years. The two primary concerns when welding onto carbon steel pipelines are the safety of the repair crew and the integrity of the pipeline after the in-service welds have been completed. However in-service welding has been limited for some products that could react at the pipeline operating pressure if they reach a sufficient temperature that can occur during in-service welding. Even with this additional risk mitigation approach, some companies have historically been extremely cautious or have not allowed welding onto pipelines that contained some products. One such product is ethylene. Welding onto ethylene pipelines has been performed in the past but has more recently been considered a product for which in-service welding should not be undertaken due to the potential of an ethylene decomposition reaction that is exothermic and could result in a pipeline failure.

The weld trials performed during this project were to test the hypothesis that an ethylene decomposition reaction that could result in a pipeline failure would not be produced as a result of in-service welding onto an ethylene pipeline. This was based on the background literature search and industry survey that showed in-service welding onto ethylene pipelines has been performed safely but generally there has been no detailed reporting of how those in-service welds were deposited. If an ethylene decomposition reaction does not result in a pipeline failure, then this work will be used to develop a relationship between welding heat inputs, pipeline wall thickness, and pipeline operating pressure under which in-service welds could safely be deposited onto an ethylene pipeline.
PR405-213601-R04 Validation of Digital Twins for Monitoring, Optimization, and Compliance of CP Systems
Authors: Baete Christophe , Parker Keith
Published: August 2023

The digital twin used in this research is a mechanistic (or deterministic) computer model that represents the cathodic protection behavior of a pipeline network. The model is calibrated based on field data such that it mimics the real-world behavior of the pipeline. The objective of this research is to validate the accuracy of the digital twin model on three industry cases.

First, the sensitivity of the independent variables (soil, coating and cathodic protection properties) that are the inputs of the digital twin was investigated during a literature study, a lab and field-based modeling on a theoretical pipeline network. A statistical analysis with the multi-variate adaptive regression spline method was performed to identify the most influencing independent variables on the cathodic protection modeling.

Secondly, the accuracy of the digital twin model was validated on three real-world pipeline cases with a different degree of complexity. The digital twin models were calibrated based on the available data without any additional field testing. In two out of three cases an accuracy of approximately 90% was obtained between the simulated and measured pipe-to-soil ON and OFF potentials.

Digital twin models with sufficient accuracy are used to make assessments on the cathodic protection effectiveness and risk of DC stray current interference. It supports systemic improvements to CP monitoring with reduced dependence on field collected operational data - which is about preventing corrosion. A sound digital twin model is used for endorsing integrity programs and ultimately for compliance reporting to the regulator.

Three Serious Mistakes in Einstein’s Original Paper of Special Relativity in 1905
Authors: Mei Xiaochun , Yuan Canlun
Published: August 2023

It is revealed in this paper that there were three serious mistakes in the Einstein’s original paper in 1905. Einstein did not prove that the motion equation of classical electromagnetic field could satisfy the invariance of the Lorentz coordinate transformation. The Einstein’s derivations on the formulas of transverse and longitudinal masses, as well as the calculation on the mass-energy relation are wrong. 1. In order to prove that the classical Maxwell electromagnetic field equation satisfied the invariance of Lorentz transformation in free space without charged and current, Einstein introduced the transformations of electromagnetic fields themselves, called the Einstein’s transformations of electromagnetic fields. However, these transformations are completely different from the Lorentz transformations of electromagnetic fields themself, which leads to contradiction and does not hold. 2. For the electromagnetic field equations in non-free space with charge and current, the Einstein’s transformations can not make the electromagnetic fields unchanged under the Lorentz transformation. 3. The constitutive equations of electromagnetic theory in the medium do not satisfy the invariance of the Lorentz transformation too. Therefore, the classical electromagnetic field equations have no the invariance of the Lorentz transformation actually, and the most important theoretical and experimental basis of special relativity do not exist. 4. The Einstein's derivations on the formulas of transverse and longitudinal masses have a series of elementary mistakes in mathematics and physics. Einstein took the relative speed between two reference frames as the arbitrary moving velocity of a particle, and the obtained formulas were completely different from the existing mass-velocity of special relativity. 3. When Einstein derived the mass-energy relationship, he only calculated the work done by the force in the x-axis direction of particle’s motion, ignoring the work done by the force at the y- and z-axes directions. Meanwhile, the constant relative motion velocity between two reference frames was misused as the variable arbitrary velocity of a particle. Therefore, Einstein had not derived the mass-velocity formula and mass-energy relationship used in the present special relativity.
Does the development of digital economy alleviate environmental problems-empirical evidence from the Yangtze River economic belt
Authors: Chao Chen , Ziyi Kang , Dongjoo Kim
Published: August 2023

The digital economy has become a new driving force for economic development. This paper takes 11 provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt as research objects, constructs comprehensive evaluation indicators of environmental problems and digital economy, uses panel data of 11 provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2011 to 2020, and applies various econometric models to empirically test the impact of digital economy development on environmental problems in multiple dimensions. It was found that the development of the digital economy in the Yangtze River Economic Belt significantly mitigates environmental problems, a conclusion that still holds after the robustness analysis. The mediation analysis indicates that the development of the digital economy mitigates environmental problems through industrial structural upgrading and green technology innovation. The heterogeneity analysis shows that the digital economy development in the downstream areas of the Yangtze River Economic Belt has the largest environmental improvement effect and the smallest in the midstream areas. Spatial spillover analysis shows that digital economy development in the Yangtze River Economic Belt has significantly reduced environmental problems in surrounding areas through spatial spillover effects. The findings of the study provide empirical evidence that the development of the digital economy can mitigate environmental problems, and also serve as a policy reference for developing the digital economy and bringing the environmental improvement role of the digital economy into play.

Published: August 2023

This paper presents an approach to green software engineering that integrates cloud-based face detection and static code analysis to promote sustainable software development. The proposed method uses OpenCV, a computer vision library, and a pre-trained Haar cascade classifier to detect faces in images. Faces are marked with green bounding frames that serve as visual indicators of their locations. In addition, the paper evaluates the quality of a distinct script file using Pylint library static code analysis techniques. The analysis evaluates code compliance with standards, identifies potential flaws, and identifies code odors. By integrating these practices, the proposed method seeks to reduce resource consumption, maximize energy efficiency, and enhance code maintainability, promoting environmentally friendly and sustainable software engineering practices. One outcome of our effort was creating the YasminNadiaArabcSocialMediaImages data collection, which includes faces of Arabic social media celebrities and is filled out to be accessible for public usage on the websites Kaggle and GitHub.

Authors: Tsaturyan Ruzanna
Published: August 2023

The cultural landscape is a metaphorical language through which power, hopes and expectations are expressed. Especially in ideological and non-democratic environments, these environments are associated with ideas of power and the visualization of messages in the language of power. The Charents Memorial Hall, opened in 1978 in Charentsavan, the industrial city of Soviet Armenia, reflected the close connection of the cultural landscape of the Soviet city with urbanism and ideology. This was expressed both in the choice of the place of the memorial hall, the external and internal design, and in the content. Today, the memorial hall functions as a medium for forgetting the "glory" of the past. When represented, these places have great potential to represent the narratives of the Soviet cultural landscape and politics.

ÖZET
Amaç: Koronavirüs hastalığı 2019 (COVİD-19) ‘un yüksek mortalite oranı ve yetersiz yatak kapasitesi acil
servis yönetiminde zorluklar yaşatmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışma laktat/albümin oranının (LAR) acil
servisteki COVID-19 hastalarında mortaliteyi tahmin edip etmediğini araştırdı.
Yöntemler: Çalışmaya Mart-Ağustos 2020 tarihleri arasında acil servise getirilen 504 COVID-19 hastası
dahil edildi. Hastaların laktat ve albümin düzeyleri, LAR, yaş, cinsiyet ve hastane içi mortalite durumları
kaydedildi. Hastalar hastane içi mortalitesine göre gruplandırıldı ve gruplar arasında istatistiksel bir
karşılaştırma yapıldı.
Bulgular: Dahil edilen hastaların 252'si (%50) erkekti ve ortanca yaş 61,5(47-72,75) idi. 79 (%15,7) hastada
hastane içi mortalite görüldü. Hayatta kalmayan gruptaki hastaların medyan laktat ve LAR değerleri, hayatta
kalan gruba göre anlamlı derecede yüksekti (laktat: 2.05 [1.5–3.4] ve 1.6 [1.2–2], sırasıyla [p<0.001]; LAR:
0,584 [0,406–0,956] ve 0,38 [0,29 0,489], sırasıyla [p<0,001]). Ortalama albumin değeri hayatta kalmayan
grupta, hayatta kalan gruba göre anlamlı olarak düşüktü (3,68±0,58 ve 4,19±0,48, sırasıyla; p<0,001).
Hastane içi COVID-19 mortalitesini tahmin etmek için elde edilen LAR’ın eğri altındaki alan (EAA)
değerleri, laktat için olanlardan daha yüksekti (LAR ve laktatın EAA'sı: sırasıyla 0.730 ve 0.669). LAR'ın
EAA değeri laktatın EAA değerinden anlamlı olarak yüksekti (p<0.001).
Sonuç: LAR, COVID-19 hastalarında hastane içi mortalitenin orta derecede doğru bir tahmincisidir ve
LAR'ın laktat seviyelerinden daha güvenilir bir tahmin edici olduğu bulunmuştur.

Dormancy is a blockage to germination and represents an adaptive mechanism that allows papaya seed to delay its emergence. Rhizobacteria improve plant growth in several ways, phytohormone production, nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization and increase root morphology. The present investigation was conducted to determine the efficiency of rhizobacteria (PGPR's) Pseudomona protegens (CHA0) and Pseudomona putida (BMR 2-4) inoculated within three bioformulates to be evaluated within the percentage of germination, increase of absorbing hairs using rhizotrons and seedlings under consortia or in combination of phosphorus fertilizers. Under in-vitro conditions, BIOIMPULSE co-inoculation was very effective in increasing germination percentage with an average of 80%. In rhizotrons, a greater increase in absorbing hairs of 5.67 mm and root area of 0.86 mm2 per BIOIMPULSE was exhibited, comparable to the treatment with AIA (25 mg/mL). In seedlings, BIOIMPULSE is highly effective in improving root morphology and height by emendando 5 g/L phosphorus was observed Ø hypocotyl dimensions between (5.12 to 4.62 mm) and functional leaves (9.75 to 11.75). BIOIMPULSE modifies root functioning, improves plant nutrition, and influences vegetative physiology, being versatile over all other bioformulates by increasing the germination percentage, early appearance of root hairs and root growth in the presence of phosphorus fertilizers. This means that they can be useful to reduce the cost of chemical fertilizers.

Zivilgesellschaft und Justiz
Authors: Meyer Thomas
Published: August 2023

This legal-historical work traces the development of the idea of municipal self-government, which was characterized by continuities and setbacks, on the basis of administrative court decisions on municipal matters in the Grand Duchy of Baden. With a special focus on municipal supervision and municipal electoral law, the study shows how the understanding of municipal task performance oscillated between non-autonomy and independence and how an independent administrative jurisdiction developed. The work provides a comprehensive overview of the milestones and turning points in the institutionalization of municipal jurisdiction in the period from early constitutional Baden to the November Revolution.
Supervision as control system
Authors: Hämberg Eva
Published: August 2023

In this article, the prevailing official view of supervision as a regulatory instrument is examined as it applies to the social services sector in Sweden. The study is based on a comparison of the views expressed on the design of supervision as a regulatory instrument by two government commissions, the Supervision Commission and the Commission on Supervision within the Social Services (UTIS), and on the positions taken by the Government regarding the definitions of the concept of supervision proposed by these commissions. The view of supervision as a regulatory instrument expressed in these policy documents is analysed with the help of a theoretical framework describing the components, their functions and the governance characteristics of control systems. In the framework separate interrelated characteristics of the components are identified and summarized into two models of control systems. The analysis shows that supervision in the Swedish social services sector can be described in terms of both a disciplinary and non-disciplinary system. By its system theoretical basis and the identification of interrelated characteristics the study contributes to a broadened understanding of the construction and functions of supervision as a regulatory instrument and of how supervision within the Swedish social sector is meant to be designed.
The destructive distance between the ideological discourse and the practical management of the ”creative city”
Authors: Mård Mika
Published: August 2023

In this paper I will use three illustrations to illustrate a gap between the discourse of the “creative city”, and the way the concept is managed at the street-level. The illustrations draw attention to the phenomenon of the problematic inclusion of a certain definition of skateboarding into the concept of “the creative city”, but spatial exclusion of other forms of street skateboarding from the city space. I will hence raise a critique about how the concept of the “creative city” tries to conceptually incorporate street-level cultures, but ignores the practical, everyday life of these cultures. To do that I use the case of skateboarding to show how it is defined as “in place” in the discourse of the “creative city”, but still defined as “matter out of place” in the practical management of city space. The three illustrations in this paper will show how clashes and disputes are inevitable when only a certain narrowed-down definition of these subcultures is included into the discourse of the “creative city”. As the illustrations indicate there is a need to address the distance that has been created between the discourse of the “creative city” and the reality on the streets.

55 Es elemental prohibir la calculadora o teléfono móvil como recurso didáctico a los estudiantes, al momento de realizar el examen ceneval
Authors: Arvizu López Bertha Alicia , López Sánchez Roberto , Camacho González Griselda Guadalupe , Mondragón Portocarrero Mario Alberto
Published: August 2023

En esta investigación se realiza un análisis bibliográfico, en el cual se propone el método deductivo, donde se analiza que la calculadora como herramienta didáctica o teléfono móvil como medio electrónico se convierte en un aprendizaje sin comprensión, debido a que, no es necesaria cuando los fines de la enseñanza de las matemáticas se relacionan íntimamente con la necesidad de favorecer el desarrollo o ejercitación de la capacidad de razonar, promover la actividad creadora u original, contribuyendo al desarrollo de la imaginación, así como el poder generalizar y abstraer. Este mal uso de la tecnología desvía al alumno de un verdadero aprendizaje que otras generaciones han desarrollado.
