This book provides the most up-to-date, advanced methods and tools for risk assessment of onshore pipelines. These methods and tools are based primarily on information collected from ILI measurements and additional information about the soil surrounding the pipeline. The book provides a better understanding how the defects grow and interact (repulsion or attraction) and their spatial variability. In addition, the authors contemplate new defects that evolve between inspections and how they could affect the pipeline's reliability. A real-world case is presented to reinforce the concepts...

Chloride ingress into concrete is one of the major causes leading to the degradation of reinforced concrete structures with important damages after 10 to 20 years. Consequently, they should be periodically inspected and repaired to ensure an optimal level of serviceability and safety. Chloride ingress involves a large number of uncertainties related to material properties and exposure conditions. However, it is difficult to obtain sufficient inspection data to characterise the mid- and long-term behaviour of this phenomenon. The main objective of this thesis is to develop a framework based on...
