This book provides readers with recent insights and practical tools for the design, maintenance and repair of submarine pipeline. Based on research and field experience of the authors, it offers a comprehensive text on both the foundational aspects of pipeline integrity and the latest advancements in inspection and repair technologies. It covers visual, non-destructive testing, and intelligent technologies for inspection, and simulations and reliability analysis for assessing corroded pipelines. In turn, it examines impact damage mechanisms, and thermal buckling behavior. Further, it covers composite pipelines, including their mechanical properties and failure mechanisms under complex loads. It addresses dent behaviors in steel pipelines, highlighting innovative repair techniques and emerging trends. Written for professionals, such as engineers, project managers, and researchers, this book offers advanced insights and practical tools for assessing submarine pipelines operating under complex conditions in the context of increasingly challenging marine environments.

Life is probably like a drawing board stained with paint, requiring a strong color to acquire the sense of presence, and it can't be in want of the grayness that can move forward or backward, to endure the hardships of the long journey, without stubbornness, scramble, discouragement, or even pretensions. Grey phrases represent the expectation of the unknown, the relief of regrets, and the persistence to the light in the bottom of the heart. The words one wants to utter will not be forgotten after being recorded; the poems one intends to write, draw the outline of the years; the dreams one desires to dream can fill melancholy feelings. The author's paintbrush swept through the loneliness of the unspiritual world. She painted pale years with grayness. This book provides a resting space for heart and soul fond of quietness, telling stories with paintings and poems.
