A Vibration-Based Strategy for Health Monitoring of Offshore Pipelines’ Girth-Welds

A Vibration-Based Strategy for Health Monitoring of Offshore Pipelines’ Girth-Welds

This study presents numerical simulations and experimental verification of a vibration-based damage detection technique. Health monitoring of a submerged pipe’s girth-weld against an advancing notch is attempted. Piezoelectric transducers are bonded on the pipe for sensing or actuation purposes. Vib...
