ABSTRACT Pipelines offer an economically and ecologically reliable, good solution for the trans-

port of liquids and gases worldwide. Even in a small country like Austria they are an

almost indispensable means of transport, especially for natural gas.

THEORETICAL PART: This work addresses the most important questions industrial engineers and scientists

are confronted with, when working in the fields of project planning, construction, and

operation of pipelines.

Starting from a description of the situation in Austria and a comparison with world-

wide solutions, the following fields are examined: Damage caused by cracks and cor-

rosion, as well as countermeasures; materials used in pipeline construction (ferritic-

pearlitic, bainitic, and duplex-steels) and their processing properties (especially con-

cerning welding technology); aspects of materials testing and quality management.

EXPERIMENTAL PART: Based on numerous welding-technological and fracture-mechanical examinations,

the influencing parameters and limits, essential for a problem-free construction and

reliable operation of pipelines, are discussed and limits established.

MATHEMATICAL PART: This part offers mathematical approaches for the predetermination of welding-tech-

nological and fracture-mechanical parameters, to be considered during the construc-

tion and the subsequent testing of pipelines.

KURZREFERAT

Rohrleitungen stellen weltweit eine oekonomisch und oekologisch zuverlaessige und

gute Loesung zum Transport fluessiger und gasfoermiger Stoffe dar. Auch in einem

kleinen Land wie Oesterreich sind sie kaum zu ersetzende Transportmittel, vor allem

fuer Erdgas.

THEORETISCHER TEIL: Diese Arbeit ist eine Zusammenstellung der wichtigsten Details, mit denen Ingenieu-

re im industriellen Einsatz und Wissenschafter konfrontiert werden, wenn sie im Be-

reich Projektierung, Bau und Betrieb von Rohrleitungen arbeiten.

Ausgehend von einer Beschreibung der Situation in Oesterreich und einer Gegen-

ueberstellung zu weltweiten Loesungen, sollen die Bereiche: Schadensfaelle durch

Risse und Korrosion und Gegenmassnahmen, verwendete Werkstoffe (ferritisch-per-

litische, bainitische und Duplex-Staehle) und ihre Verarbeitungseigenschaften (be-

sonders schweisstechnische), prueftechnische Aspekte und Qualitaetssicherung be-

handelt werden.

EXPERIMENTELLER TEIL: Anhand von zahlreichen schweisstechnischen und bruchmechanischen Untersu-

chungen werden die Einflussgroessen fuer eine problemlose Fertigung und einen

zuverlaessigen Betrieb von Pipelines bestimmt und ihre Grenzen festgelegt.

RECHNERISCHER TEIL: Weiters werden rechnerische Ansaetze fuer die Vorherbestimmung der schweiss-

technischen und bruchmechanischen Parameter, die sich bei der Fertigung und

einer anschliessenden Pruefung ergeben, geliefert.

PREFACE

The first German edition of this book has been written as a habilitation at Vienna

University of Technology. The author is thankfull for suggestions to this book.

The individual introductions to the various subjects are intended also to open this

book to interested experts with different knowledge and background, and not just

only to scientifically qualified readers.

Hopefully the variaty of information by the dissemination of this book will be supplied

to an interested and attentive circle of readers, to lead to a better understanding of

the problems possibly occurring with ferritic-pearlitic steels, bainitic steels, or duplex-

steels, especially with regard to the properties of the used materials, their process-

sing (especially welding technology), the following testing (e.g. destructive and non-

destructive testing, fracture mechanical, metallographical, and fractographical me-

thods), the quality management, the ecology, and the economy.
