| Estimated Completion |
Complete |
| Description |
The objective was to characterize
the fatigue properties of several high strength steels (yield stress in the range 60-130
ksi) which are being proposed for deep ocean oil and gas facilities. These materials were
to be tested under conditions which are applicable to the service status of offshore
structures. The materials were characterized according to the influence of environmental
and load variables upon their engineering properties. This was a Joint Industry Project (JIP). |
| Progress |
Complete. The final report has
been submitted and accepted. |
