Front End Engineering Design or FEED is an engineering design approach adopted prior to detailed engineering, procurement, and construction. It is an important engineering design phase that is used...

Maximum shear stress theory provides failure criteria for mechanical components made of ductile material. This failure criterion is developed by the French mechanical engineer, Henri Tresca, and...

The term "Brownfield vs. Greenfield" is frequently heard during project execution. This is a very meaningful term for the oil & gas industry. But, the term greenfield vs brownfield is not only...

Von Mises Stress criterion is one of the widely used criteria for designing ductile material engineering components. To judge if a design is within design limits and will work safely for its design...

Oil and gas, petrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals rely heavily on complex pipe systems to transport fluids, gases, and chemicals. In these applications, maintaining a tight seal, isolating equipment,...

Moment of Inertia is a very useful term for mechanical engineering and piping stress analysis. It represents the rotational inertia of an object. The moment of inertia signifies how difficult is to...
