"© Uncertainties associated wth the sing ofthe defect depth and the material properties are specifically considered. '™ Probabilistic calibrated equations (with partial safety factors) are given '§ The second approach is based on the ASD (Allowable Stress Design) format '= The calculated failure pressure pressure is multiplied by a single safety factor based on the original design factor.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS ON BURST STRENGTH OF CORROSION - Long Areas = All the main methods (ASME, DNV) allow for long defects. = The long defects tend to infinity, therefore the M or Q factor tends to infinity, and the equations go to: = Failure stress = Flow stress x (1-d/t) (© Poncpen Lid OTHER CONSIDERATIONS ON BURST STRENGTH OF CORROSION - External Loads = DNV-RP-F101 The method assumes that the failure surface follows a Tresca criterion, ie. a tensile axial stress does not affect the burst pressure, but a compressive axial load reduces the burst pressure in a linear manner. A rectangular defect profile is assumed, = The method is only applicable if the total axial stress (including the contribution due to the internal pressure) is compressive.
