Acoustic emission analyses of the hygrothermal ageing of glass syntactic foams
In deepwater offshore production, thermal insulation of pipelines and risers is now commonly made with glass syntactic foams. These composite materials offer both good insulation properties and pressure resistance, and also provide buoyancy to the systems. But service conditions are increasingly sev...
