Abstract:
The complexity of innovation processes is associated with a high level of uncertainty in the results of bringing innovations to the market and their commercialization. The key task in the innovative development of business entities is the preventive assessment of innovations and the selection of the most promising for the implementation of innovative developments. This circumstance requires research and detailed elaboration of the methodological apparatus for assessing innovative developments. Purpose of the work: to carry out a criterion assessment of promising for the implementation of innovative developments, the transfer of which will provide a high level of return on investment, and will lead to an increase in the innovative activity of business entities. Research object: innovative developments (creation of our own, acquisition, copying). The proposed assessment of innovative development is based on the calculation of two criteria: payback period and versatility. The choice of the "payback period" criterion is based on two aspects. First of all, it determines the period for which the invested funds will be returned to the investor and determines the "profitability" of investments in innovative developments, since its calculation is directly related to cost and profit indicators. Evaluation of the quality indicators of the criterion "universality": novelty, inventive step, applicability, compliance with standards, the presence of competitors in the market is carried out by a point method with the help of experts. The results of the assessment reflect the recommendations on the effectiveness of the implementation of innovative developments, complement the overall assessment of innovative activities, in terms of including in the cost of new products the costs of creating an innovative development from a model within the framework of R&D, for the development of production and other possible costs associated with bringing the innovative development to use in production and commercialization.

Abstract:
Today Ukrainian business entities operate in conditions of macroeconomic instability, environmental disturbance, energy dependence on risk of instable and interrupted supply and high cost of energy resources, excessive energy consumption and inefficient use of fuel and energy resources, which requires immediate actions as for finding solutions to ensure energy security. The goal of the article is to solve multi-criteria tasks focused on making managerial decisions regarding the development of enterprise energy security system based on evaluation of influence of numerous factors. As a result of this study, main components of energy security of the enterprise and most important influence factors are determined. The mathematical model of the hierarchy of factors in terms of their influence on the energy security of the enterprise with the use of graph theory is developed. Use of iterative procedure to determine the levels of hierarchy of factors allowed to assess the importance/priority of their influence on energy security of the enterprise. Thus, the developed model of hierarchy of factors based on the applied scientific and methodical approach to determine their influence on energy security of the enterprise provides the opportunity to get a detailed idea of factors interaction, interconnections and influence on energy security of the enterprise, which ultimately leads to elaboration of complex optimal/agreed managerial decisions in context of development and implementation of energy security system of the enterprise.

Abstract:
Abstract The current concept of rangeland condition is faced with many problems that make it difficult for managers to apply. The concept is based on climax theory, which itself has been criticised by many scientists, as it also fails to reflect the real status of rangelands based on all the functions and benefits that they are able to provide. Considering the objectives of rangeland management, a new concept of rangeland condition based on ecological and economic criteria (ECEA) is suggested in this article. In this concept, rangeland condition is achieved as ‘the ratio of current benefits of a rangeland to the operation costs for its ecological restoration (to the extent that the most sustainable benefits provided). Furthermore, based on this new concept an equation is developed for quantitative measurement of the rangeland condition. We believe that this new concept can solve many problems around the existing concept of rangeland condition.

Abstract:
The changes in the contemporary world require teachers to develop new teaching approaches. These requirements can only be met with improvement in teachers’ professional training and assessment activities. Assessment activities are a key aspect of professional competence in the education process. Teachers and their students from the first gymnasium in Petropavlovsk participated in the study. The study employed a mixed-method approach over three years. The study aimed to answer seven research questions grounded in the literature by developing a training program and experimentally testing it among teachers. At the onset of the program, all teachers were at the critical (lowest) level for the formation of assessment activities. With consistent training and support, the teacher’s level of formation improved significantly, even to the optimal (highest) level. The study revealed four components of evaluation: motivational; informative; technological; and reflexive. These components were embedded in various criteria, indicators, and research methods. The study also revealed the questions commonly asked by teachers during the assessment and when engaged in student participation. This is the only study that has simultaneously examined teacher competence, interdisciplinary assessment methods, teacher development, and student cognition. The theoretical and practical implications of the study are discussed. Keywords: Assessment activity; assessment evaluation; pedagogical activity; teachers

The article considers the issue of the transition of Kazakhstan's school education to the updated content. One of the changes in education system of our country is the criteria- based assessment that is used for the assessment of students` achievements. The implemented system of criteria- based assessment is aimed at the development of the student, increasing his/ her motivation to learn. The role of evaluation criteria and regular feedback, understandable for each student and his parents, becomes essential. The effectiveness of the reform of school education will largely depend on the readiness of Kazakhstani teachers to work in the condition of updated system of education, in connection with which the teacher's practice and his research activities become important

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Treatment outcome research strives towards objective estimates of disorder-specific treatment efficacy and has been applied to most psychiatric disorders. However, due to shortcomings in outcome research designs, problems still remain regarding the interpretation and generalisability of treatment outcomes. This is despite the development of research methodology criteria such as the Gold Standards, currently viewed as essential criteria for well-controlled cognitive-behavioural outcome research. The objectives of this assignment are (a) to assess the Gold Standards as criteria for treatment outcome research by means of a qualitative overview and evaluation of exposure treatment studies for PTSD, and (b) to make recommendations for the expansion and/or modification of these criteria. An assessment of five selected treatment outcome trials, based on the Gold Standards, showed significant limitations in the scope of the Gold Standards regarding (a) the inclusion of target symptoms in the research hypotheses, (b) estimates of treatment adherence, (c) guidelines for statistical analyses of attrition points, (d) the ethical implementation of exposure treatment, and (e) estimates of significant clinical change. It is concluded that the Gold Standards are not sufficient to ensure valid and reliable treatment outcomes. Recommendations are made for the expansion of four of the existing Gold Standards parameters and three additional criteria are proposed. Key words: treatment outcome research, Gold Standards, post-traumatic stress disorder, exposure therapy.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Navorsing oor behandelingsuitkoms streef na objektiewe resultate oor die uitkoms van behandeling vir spesifieke psigiatriese versteurings. Nogtans, weens tekortkominge in die ontwerp van uitkomsstudies, word talle probleme steeds ervaar met die interpretasie en veralgemeenbaarheid van die resultate van die studies. Dit is die geval ten spyte van die ontwikkeling van navorsingskriteria soos die "Gold Standards" wat huidig as die belangrikste kriteria vir uitkomsstudies op die gebied van die kognitiewe gedragsterapie aanvaar word. Hierdie projek het ten doelom (a) die Gold Standards as kriteria vir uitkomsnavorsing te assesseer deur middel van 'n kwalitatiewe oorsig en evaluering van vyf geselekteerde uitkomsstudies van blootstellingsterapie vir post-traumatiese stresversteuring, en (b) om aanbevelings te maak ter aanvulling enJofwysiging van die Gold Standards. Evaluasie van die studies het betekenisvolle beperkings in die Gold Standards se omvattenheid uitgelig in terme van (a) die insluiting van teikensimptome in die navorsingshipoteses, (b) die skatting van behandelingvoitrekking ("treatment adherence"), (c) riglyne vir die statistiese analise van data oor attrisie, (d) die etiese implementering van blootstellingsterapie, en (e) skattings van betekenisvolle kliniese verandering. Dit blyk dat die Gold Standards nie voldoende is om geldige en betroubare resultate oor behandelingsuitkomste te verseker nie. Aanbevelings word gemaak vir die hersiening van vier van die Gold Standards kriteria en drie addisionele kriteria word voorgestel. Sleutelwoorde: behandelingsuitkomsnavorsing. Gold Standards, post-traumatiese stresversteuring, blootstellingsterapie.

Abstract:
How do teachers develop an understanding and make interpretations of the assessment criteria used for standards-referenced assessment like School-Based Assessment (SBA) in Hong Kong? The thesis attempts to offer an answer to this question through researching four English Language teachers teaching in a secondary school over a period of two years (2008 -2010). Understanding the meanings of the criteria used for the standards-referenced assessment is the primary focus of this study. Keeping track of the teachers’ opinions on the content and the use of criteria, this case study draws upon qualitative data from the interviews with the teachers after each assessment, and from regular meetings on standardizing scores, setting tasks and training on standards in the two-year assessment cycle. Focus group interviews with their students were used to triangulate the data collected from their respective teachers. The main findings from this study are as follows: the teachers demonstrate variability in their level of understanding and interpretations of the criteria, through which they use to rate students’ oral performances in SBA context. This understanding of the meanings of the criteria enhanced when they start using it. Teachers also adopt the criteria in other contexts such as meetings to standardize scores, to set assessment tasks and to familiarize themselves with the standards .Regarding their self-perceived role as assessors, the four teachers embrace a range of roles such as a follower, a team player, a game player, and a believer. This study is significant as it informs how teachers involved in understanding the meanings of standards-referenced criteria. This conceptualization process would be enhanced if teachers are given opportunity to share their views towards the assessment criteria and their roles as assessors in a professional community of shared practices.<br>published_or_final_version<br>Education<br>Master<br>Master of Philosophy

Abstract:
Measurement of visual quality is crucial for various image and video processing applications. <br /><br /> The goal of objective image quality assessment is to introduce a computational quality metric that can predict image or video quality. Many methods have been proposed in the past decades. Traditionally, measurements convert the spatial data into some other feature domains, such as the Fourier domain, and detect the similarity, such as mean square distance or Minkowsky distance, between the test data and the reference or perfect data, however only limited success has been achieved. None of the complicated metrics show any great advantage over other existing metrics. <br /><br /> The common idea shared among many proposed objective quality metrics is that human visual error sensitivities vary in different spatial and temporal frequency and directional channels. In this thesis, image quality assessment is approached by proposing a novel framework to compute the lost information in each channel not the similarities as used in previous methods. Based on natural scene statistics and several image models, an information theoretic framework is designed to compute the perceptual information contained in images and evaluate image quality in the form of entropy. <br /><br /> The thesis is organized as follows. Chapter I give a general introduction about previous work in this research area and a brief description of the human visual system. In Chapter II statistical models for natural scenes are reviewed. Chapter III proposes the core ideas about the computation of the perceptual information contained in the images. In Chapter IV, information theoretic criteria for image quality assessment are defined. Chapter V presents the simulation results in detail. In the last chapter, future direction and improvements of this research are discussed.

Abstract:
[EN] The main objectives of this research are the following. First, to analyse the models and methods in Decision Support Systems (DSS) for forest management, taking into account the important features which allow forestry related problems to be categorized. Second, to define strategic criteria for the sustainable management of Mediterranean forests, as well as to elicit and aggregate the stakeholders' preferences. Third, to propose a robust methodology to implement collaborative management focused on ESS and to develop indicators for the main functions of ESS. The methodology is based on a workshop and surveys to elicit the decision makers', experts' and other stakeholders' preferences. Several techniques were then used to aggregate individual judgements and determine social preferences, in particular, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Goal Programming (GP). In addition, a PROMETHEE based method has been developed to provide indicators of the ESS, classified into provisioning, maintenance and direct to citizens services. The analysis of DSS for forest management has shown that the best choice of approach to solve a given problem depend on its nature, which can be characterized by the temporal scale, spatial context, spatial scale, number of decision makers or stakeholders, objectives and finally goods and services involved. A decision hierarchy for strategic management of Valencian forests has been developed by involving experts during the design phase. This was later validated in consultation with the stakeholders in a workshop and provides the base from which to obtain the social preferences. The results show greater importance for environmental and social criteria and lesser relevance for economic criteria, valid for both public and private Mediterranean forests. This result is the same regardless of which preference aggregation technique was used and takes into account the preferences of the majority of the stakeholders and also the minority opinions furthest from the consensus. New products and services such as rural tourism, renewable energies, landscape, hydrological regulation and erosion control, biodiversity and climate change mitigation are relevant. This research also proposes a robust methodology to implement collaborative management focused on ESS provided by protected areas and aggregated indicators for their main functions. Decision makers, technical staff and other stakeholders are included in the process from the beginning, by identifying ESS and eliciting preferences using the AHP method. Qualitative and quantitative data are then integrated into a PROMETHEE based method in order to obtain indicators for provisioning, maintenance and direct to citizens services. This methodology, which has been applied in a forest natural park, provides a tool for exploiting available technical and social data in a continuous process, as well as graphical results, which are easy to understand. This approach also overcomes the difficulties found in prioritising management objectives in a multiple criteria context with limited resources and facilitates consensus between all of the people involved. The new indicators define an innovative approach to assessing the ESS from the supply perspective and provide basic information to help establish payment systems for environmental services and compensation for natural disasters.<br>[ES] Los principales objetivos de esta investigación son los siguientes. En primer lugar, analizar los modelos y los métodos de los sistemas de ayuda a la toma de decisiones para gestión forestal, teniendo en cuenta las características relevantes que permiten clasificar los problemas forestales. En segundo lugar, definir los criterios estratégicos para la gestión forestal sostenible del bosque mediterráneo, así como obtener y agregar las preferencias de los decisores y otras partes interesadas. En tercer lugar, proponer una metodología robusta para implementar una gestión colaborativa centrada en los servicios del ecosistema y desarrollar indicadores para las principales funciones de estos servicios. La metodología se fundamenta en una jornada de trabajo con decisores, expertos y otros grupos de personas interesadas, así como en encuestas a todos ellos. Después se han utilizado varias técnicas para agregar las preferencias individuales y determinar las preferencias de los distintos grupos sociales, en particular el proceso analítico jerárquico y la programación por metas. Adicionalmente, se ha desarrollado un método basado en PROMETHEE que permite obtener indicadores de los servicios del ecosistema, clasificados en servicios de producción, mantenimiento y directos a los ciudadanos. El análisis de los sistemas de ayuda a la toma de decisiones para gestión forestal ha puesto de manifiesto que los mejores enfoques para resolver los problemas forestales dependen de su naturaleza, caracterizada por la escala temporal, el contexto espacial, la escala espacial, el número de decisores o personas interesadas, el número de objetivos y por último los bienes y servicios involucrados. Se ha desarrollado una jerarquía de decisión para la gestión estratégica de los bosques valencianos involucrando a expertos en la fase de diseño. Este modelo fue validado posteriormente por las partes interesadas en una jornada organizada con esta finalidad y ha sido la base para obtener las preferencias sociales. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto la mayor importancia de los criterios medioambientales y sociales y la menor relevancia de los económicos, tanto para el monte mediterráneo público como privado.

En primer lloc, analitzar els models i els mètodes dels sistemes d'ajuda a la presa de decisions per a gestió forestal, tenint en compte les característiques rellevants que permeten classificar els problemes forestals. En segon lloc, definir els criteris estratègics per a la gestió forestal sostenible del bosc mediterrani, com també obtenir i agregar les preferències dels decisors i altres parts interessades. En tercer lloc, proposar una metodologia robusta per a implementar una gestió col·laborativa centrada en els serveis de l'ecosistema i desenvolupar indicadors per a les principals funcions d'aquests serveis. La metodologia es fonamenta en una jornada de treball amb decisors, experts i altres grups de persones interessades, i també en enquestes a tots ells. Després s'han utilitzat diverses tècniques per a afegir-hi les preferències individuals i determinar les preferències dels diferents grups socials, en particular el procés analític jeràrquic i la programació per metes. Addicionalment, s'ha desenvolupat un mètode basat en PROMETHEE que permet obtenir indicadors dels serveis de l'ecosistema, classificats en serveis de producció, manteniment i directes als ciutadans. L'anàlisi dels sistemes d'ajuda a la presa de decisions per a la gestió forestal ha posat de manifest que els millors enfocaments per a resoldre els problemes forestals depenen de la naturalesa d'aquests problemes, caracteritzada per l'escala temporal, el context espacial, l'escala espacial, el nombre de decisors o persones interessades, el nombre d'objectius i, finalment, els béns i serveis involucrats. S'ha desenvolupat una jerarquia de decisió per a la gestió estratègica dels boscos valencians involucrant experts en la fase de disseny. Aquest model ha sigut validat posteriorment per les parts interessades en una jornada organitzada amb aquesta finalitat i ha sigut la base per a obtenir les preferències socials. Els resultats posen de manifest la major importància dels criteris mediambientals i socials i la menor rellevància dels econòmics, tant per a la muntanya mediterrània pública com privada. Aquest resultat és independent del mètode d'agregació utilitzat i té en compte tant les preferències de la majoria com de la minoria més allunyada del consens. Són rellevants els nous productes i serveis, com ara el turisme rural, les energies renovables, el paisatge, la regulació hidrològica i el control de l'erosió, la biodiversitat i la mitigació del canvi climàtic. Aquesta recerca també proposa una metodologia robusta per a implementar una gestió col·laborativa centrada en els serveis de l'ecosistema que proporcionen les àrees protegides i indicadors agregats per a les seues funcions principals. Els responsables de les decisions, el personal tècnic i altres persones interessades hi han participat des de l'inici del procés, identificant els serveis de l'ecosistema i proporcionant les seues preferències mitjançant la tècnica del procés analític jeràrquic. Després s'integren les dades qualitatives i quantitatives en un mètode basat en PROMETHEE amb la finalitat d'obtenir indicadors per als serveis de producció, manteniment i directes als ciutadans. Aquesta metodologia, que s'ha aplicat en un parc natural, facilita l'explotació de les dades tècniques i socials en un procés continu i proporciona resultats gràfics molt fàcils d'entendre. Aquest enfocament també permet superar les dificultats que sorgeixen a l'hora de prioritzar els objectius de gestió en un context multicriteri amb recursos limitats i facilita el consens entre totes les persones involucrades. Els nous indicadors representen un enfocament innovador per a la valoració dels serveis de l'ecosistema des del punt de vista de l'oferta i proporcionen informació bàsica per a establir sistemes de pagaments per serveis ambientals i compensacions per desastres naturals.<br>Segura Maroto, M.

Abstract:
Significant investments are being made in the construction sector in order to raise the quality of the buildings and make them more sustainable and energy-efficient. The key aspect of these investments should be the purposeful optimization of the possible renovation and construction measures. However, this important matter usually is being pushed aside in favor of construction price and/or quality. Nevertheless, there are plenty of criteria that play a major role in building sustainable development. The main purpose of this study is to present a tool that combines multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods and building certification systems in order to make weighted decisions in complicated construction tasks. For this, a decision making model was developed with a focus on sustainability, buildings’ life cycle, MCDM methods, and building certification. The first section of this thesis, the introduction, discusses the importance of the investigated area, and the main objectives, tasks, and structure of the thesis. A literature review is presented in Section 2 – Theory. The main works in the area of sustainability, LCA, building certification, and MCDM are collected to show their role and importance and how they interact in the construction industry. Section 3 presents and discusses the main ideas and instructions of the proposed decision making model. Section 4 (Methodology) introduces the main existing and proposed techniques that I have used to implement the study. Sections 5 and 6 are the case studies, which demonstrate how the proposed methods can be used in practice.

Abstract:
This study explores the issue of generating ordered distributions of Queensland senior secondary school students using criteria-based assessment data. Criteria-based assessment data are multidimensional, yet ordered distributions are unidimensional since order is a property of univariate data. Ordering multivariate data requires the data to be transformed onto a univariate scale and such transformations are called here ordering mechanisms. The ordered distributions obtained from the criteria-based assessment data are used for certification purposes and tertiary entrance selection purposes. Importance is placed on these distributions, yet there seems to be little study of the ordering mechanisms to yield these distributions from multidimensional criteria-based assessment data. This study seeks to address this gap. The purpose of this research is to explore the issue of generating macro-function assessment data from micro-function assessment data. More specifically, this research considers the issue of ordering multivariate educational assessment data for percentage-based assessment systems, and in particular, the nature of the ordering mechanisms for ordering systems within such assessment systems. This study is focused by the following research question: RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a mathematical system which: - orders all points in a multidimensional percentage-based assessment space, - models preferences within a multidimensional percentage-based assessment space, - can be used to construct an independent ordering system for a percentage-based assessment system? The existence of a mathematical system for modelling ordering mechanisms has been questioned. This study shows that a mathematical system with properties which suggest its applicability for developing ordering mechanisms in assessment systems for certain Board subjects, does exist.

Abstract:
<p>In the recent decades, therehave been frequent conflicts between groundwater waterresources and environmentally hazardous activities. Newmethodologies for aiding decision-making in groundwater impactassessment and protection areneeded and in which issues ofincreased awareness, better understanding of the groundwaterresources processes, and validation of predictive mathematicalmodels are addressed.</p><p>A framework fordecision–aid, based on predictive simulations that a)predicts the environmental impacts b) provides the totaleconomical value c) visualises the impacts and the groundwaterproperties and d) describes the uncertainties in the results isproposed herein. The framework can be applied in environmentalimpact assessments, strategic environmental assessments andprotection and management of water resources. The results ofthe model are used as feedback for determining new scenarios,depending on the required uncertainties, and if the plannedactivity is sustainable, and/or fulfils the legislative andpolicy measures. This framework is applied to a particular casestudy, Nybroåsen, in the south-eastern part of Sweden,where the highway E22 is constructed through the importantglaciofluvial esker aquifer, passing the protection zone of thewater supply for the Kalmar municipality.</p><p>The impacts from the new highwayand the existing road have been predicted by two-dimensionalphysically based time-variant flow and solute groundwatermodelling.

Abstract:
Breakwaters are constructed in coastal areas to protect coastal engineering structures from wave actions. Due to economic reasons, natural stones (armourstone) are very frequently used for the constructions of the breakwaters. Considering the functions of the stones at different zones of the breakwaters, various sizes with variable properties of the armourstones are used in breakwaters.Deterioration of armourstones with time in the form of abrasion and disintegration may end up with the damage of the engineering structures. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the long-term performance and quality of the armourstones, which should be sound and durable. In this thesis, the properties of four limestones taken from two quarries with a known site performances as armourstones in Mersin and Kumkuyu harbors are studied .The site performances and durability of the limestones are compared with the field measurements and laboratory works. For this purpose, the material and mass properties of the limestones are studied. Thus, the information obtained is used to assess long-term durability of the armourstones. The long&amp<br>#8211<br>term performaces of the Degirmen&ccedil<br>ayi and Tirtar upper level limestones are observed to be good whereas it is rather poor for the Tirtar middle and lower level limestones. Comparison between the predicted and observed durabilities of the armourstones indicated that CIRIA/CUR, RDId, RERS, and wet to dry strength ratio give better results based on their field performances. However, the prediction of the durability of the limestones is poor in case RDIs, average pore diameter, and saturation coefficient are used.

Abstract:
The monograph presents a methodology for assessing the vulnerability of landscapes to external influences. A comparative analysis of the concepts of "stability", "sensitivity", "vulnerability" in relation to natural complexes. An overview of existing methods for assessing the vulnerability of natural complexes is presented. The author's method of assessing the vulnerability of landscapes to anthropogenic impacts is described. The methodology is based on: selection and justification of criteria for assessing the vulnerability of landscapes; preparation of a parametric matrix and gradation of assessment criteria in accordance with the developed vulnerability classes; calculation of weighting factors of vulnerability assessment parameters; selection of optimal territorial operational unit for landscape vulnerability assessment. The method is implemented in the GIS environment "Assessment of vulnerability of landscapes of the Kaliningrad region to anthropogenic impacts", created by the authors using modern geoinformation products. The specificity of spatial differentiation of different landscapes in terms of vulnerability to anthropogenic impacts at the regional and local levels is revealed. It is stated that the use of the methodology for assessing the vulnerability of landscapes to anthropogenic impacts and its integration into the system of nature management will ensure a balanced account of geoecological features and environmental priorities in territorial planning.&#x0D; It is of interest to specialists in the field of rational nature management, environmental protection, spatial planning.

Abstract:
The issues of setting goals, planning and forming a system of indicators of the effectiveness and efficiency of the penal system are considered. The criteria for determining the goals-tasks that are adequate to the public goals of the system are justified. Quantitative indicators corresponding to the criteria were developed, based on the contribution of the criminal justice System to reducing the socio-economic losses of society from recidivism. The contribution of the system is determined by changes in the criminal potential of convicted persons during the period of serving a sentence under a court sentence. Criminal potentials are estimated by predictive values of the aggregate of three groups of characteristics of the criminal potential of convicts, determined by the stages of the cycle of recidivism. The practical results of the use of sound methods and developed tools are based on the use of a significant amount of empirical data on the institutions of the criminal justice system and its systematic expert and statistical analysis. The monograph is a generalization and development of the works carried out by the authors during 2012-2017 in the process of preparing masters of Management for the penal system. It is intended for managers and specialists of the bodies and institutions of the Criminal Justice System, researchers, teachers of higher educational institutions who train specialists for law enforcement agencies.

Abstract The ECDA process requires a continuous effort from the pipeline operator to improve the reliability of classification and prioritization criteria. Based on the results of the direct examinations, these criteria can be up-graded or down-graded as part of the retrospective evaluation and the number of such re-evaluations can be used as criteria in the long-term assessment of the ECDA effectiveness. This paper covers criteria evaluation and specific lessons learned by comparing the results of the direct examinations with predictions based on indirect inspections and pre-assessment data collected on more than 30 gas pipelines in Ontario, Canada.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Engineering Assessments represent one of the most holistic and comprehensive evaluations of a pipeline’s integrity and maintenance history. As per regulations and industry standards, engineering assessments are required to support operational changes to pipelines, including reactivation of a discontinued pipeline, significant increases to operating pressure, or changes in service fluid. In addition, engineering assessments are often included in operational audits – both internal and external – to evaluate the effectiveness of a pipeline’s integrity management program and can provide a basis for planning future inspection and risk mitigation activities. When properly executed, an engineering assessment will validate existing threat and hazard mitigation and will also identify unmanaged threats and areas where little information exists, facilitating improvement to integrity management. Engineering assessments are complex, multidisciplinary reports that require careful planning to ensure that all potential threats to a pipeline’s integrity have been considered and assessed in accordance with industry standards and requirements. This paper describes an in-depth methodology for carrying out engineering assessments on pipelines. It will outline industry best-practices for evaluating threats and provide criteria for planning future integrity management activities based on the assessment’s findings. Several case studies are also presented to highlight principles covered.

Full text
Abstract:
Reliability-based corrosion assessment criteria were developed for onshore natural gas and low vapor pressure (LVP) pipelines as part of a joint industry project. The criteria are based on the limit states design (LSD) approach and are designed to achieve consistent safety levels for a broad range of pipeline designs and corrosion conditions. The assessment criteria were developed for two corrosion limit states categories: ultimate limit state, representing large leaks and ruptures; and leakage limit state, representing small leaks. For the ultimate limit state, a safety class system is used to characterize pipelines based on the anticipated severity of failure consequences as determined by pressure, diameter, product, population density and environmental sensitivity. Since the leakage limit state does not result in significant safety or environmental consequences, a single reliability target, applicable for all pipelines at all locations is used. The assessment criteria formulations are characterized by three elements: the equations used to calculate the characteristic demand (i.e. operating pressure) and capacity (i.e. burst pressure resistance at a corrosion feature); the characteristic values of the key input parameters for these formulas (such as diameter, pressure and feature depth); and the safety factors defining the characteristic demand as a ratio of characteristic capacity. The process used to calibrate safety factors and characteristic input parameter values that meet the desired reliability levels is described, and an assessment of the accuracy and consistency of the resulting checks in meeting the reliability targets is included. The assessment criteria include two methods of application: feature-based and section-based. The feature-based method divides the allowable failure probability equally between all features. It is simple to use, but conservative in nature. It is suitable for pipelines with a small number of corrosion features. The section-based method considers the failure probability of the corrosion features in a pipeline section as a group, and ensures that the total group failure probability is below the allowable threshold for the section. This method produces less conservative results than the feature-based method, but it requires more detailed calculations. It is suitable for all pipelines, and is particularly useful for those with a large number of features. The practical implications of the application of these criteria are described in the companion paper IPC2018-78608 Implementation of Reliability-based Criteria for Corrosion Assessment.

Abstract:
In an era where pipeline safety is of paramount interest, vintage pipelines with corrosion have to be managed responsibly. Optimization of corrosion mitigation for these pipelines has a significant effect on the industry’s management systems and related costs. To help optimize the corrosion management process, reliability-based limit state design (LSD) corrosion assessment criteria have been developed for onshore pipeline as part of a joint industry project. The LSD approach is a simplified form of the reliability-based approach. It achieves risk or safety consistency within a certain tolerance, while utilizing a deterministic procedure that is easier to apply. The overall methodology and development of the criteria are described in a companion paper. This paper describes the application of the LSD corrosion criteria to real pipeline cases and evaluation of the results. The performance of the LSD criteria, as determined by the number of corrosion repairs required, was compared to that of the CSA Z662 deterministic assessment criteria and the full probabilistic criteria used by TransCanada Pipelines Ltd. (TCPL) to determine if the criteria lead to practical solutions for real cases. The CSA criteria use safety factors that are not directly based on the risk level associated with the pipeline, while the TCPL criteria utilize pipeline-specific reliability targets. The comparison was conducted using a comprehensive set of TCPL pipeline cases that covered a wide range of diameters (NPS 6 to 42), hoop stress-to-SMYS ratios (0.4 to 0.8) and corrosion densities (0.625 to 6508 features per km). The results show that the LSD criteria perform similarly to the TCPL reliability-based criteria, and that both are generally less conservative than the CSA deterministic criteria. The results demonstrate that the LSD criteria provide a simple and deterministic procedure that capitalizes on the benefits of more complex reliability analyses in eliminating unnecessary conservatism and focusing on the repairs required to achieve consistent safety levels for all cases. Thus, these criteria will enable operators to maximize risk reduction for the dollar spent.

Full text
Abstract:
For decades, TransCanada Pipelines has used inline inspection (ILI) to manage the threat of corrosion on gas pipelines. Immediate integrity was addressed using rupture pressure ratio and leak criteria, and future integrity was addressed using a growth assessment. However, a review of excavations based on predictions of defect growth shows that few excavations actually lead to repairs. This study investigated the areas of undue conservatism in both the integrity assessments and the excavation criteria. All aspects of the immediate and future integrity assessment based on ILI were examined. All relevant uncertainties were accounted for in calculating the reliability of the pipeline. A new basis of defining excavation criterion was established based on a reliability assessment and calibration. This criterion was validated against previous ILI based excavations which reveal the features that actually required repair. The criterion was also compared to reliability based criteria recommended in Annex O of the CSA Z662 which gives guidelines for Reliability Based Design and Assessment. This paper addresses the practical limitation of data and presents methods for extracting best information from available data. Case studies that demonstrate the application of the revised assessment method and criterion are also discussed.

Abstract:
Weld flaw acceptance criteria in the main body of the API 1104 pipeline code-Welding of Pipelines and Related Facilities is based on 'good workmanship' criteria. In allowing relaxed flaw acceptance criteria, the achievement of a critical CTOD value ensures that the flaws will remain stable during installation and service. This document presents alternative flaw acceptance criteria for pipeline girth welds which are based on the philosophy of fitness-for-purpose. The alternative flaw acceptance criteria can be applied in situations where specified minimum fracture toughness values are achieved in crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) tests performed on specimens notched into both the weld metal and heat-affected zone (HAZ). The alternative flaw acceptance criteria presented in Appendix A of API 1104 are restricted specifically to pipeline girth welds. In comparison, the flaw acceptance criteria in API RP1107-Recommended Pipeline Maintenance Welding Practices-which deals with pipeline sleeve welds are based entirely on 'good workmanship' standards.

Full text
Abstract:
One major difficulty in developing fitness-for-purpose based flaw acceptance criteria for pipeline branch connections is the calculation of the stress distributions in the vicinity of the welds. Even with the latest computer aided modeling technologies, direct finite element modeling of branch connections using 3-D solid elements can be time consuming and cost prohibitive. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the possibility of using more computationally-efficient finite element approaches to determine the stress distributions local to branch connections. This report describes work to develop flaw acceptance criteria based on fitness-for-purpose principles for branch connections in pipelines. The effort concentrated on investigating finite element modeling methodologies to predict accurately the stress distributions local to branch connections. These stress distributions can be used to develop fitness-for-purpose based flaw acceptance criteria that are consistent with those already developed for girth welds.

Full text
Abstract:
Girth weld defect acceptance criteria are set and enforced in pipeline constructions per federal regulations (CFR 49 Parts 192 and 195). With the increased use of mechanized welding and AUT (Automated Ultrasonic Testing) in new pipeline constructions, alternative defect acceptance criteria based on ECA (Engineering Critical Assessment) principles are frequently used in lieu of the traditional workmanship criteria that are in the main body of API Standard 1104. Unfortunately, the current alternative defect acceptance criteria of API 1104 Appendix A has not been kept up-to-date with new linepipe materials, welding processes, and pipeline service environments. The objective of this project is to provide technical basis for updating the alternative girth weld defect acceptance criteria in API 1104 Appendix A and other similar codes and standards. There are two focus areas in this project. The first focus area is to update the alternative defect acceptance criteria to address the immediate need of pipeline constructions in the U.S., typically with pipeline longitudinal strains less than 0.5%, or alternatively termed stress-based design. The materials in the new constructions are typically of micro-alloyed type and the grades are moving higher, up to X80 and X100. These materials did not exist when the current API 1104 Appendix A was adopted. Their behavior is sufficiently different that a fresh look in the current environment is needed. The second focus area is to develop a set of procedures that may be used for determining the girth weld defect acceptance level under high longitudinal strains ( greater than 0.5% and up to 2-4%).

Abstract:
This report refers to the activities performed in the frame of PRCI project on the refinement of the AC corrosion criteria by evaluating real-world pipeline AC corrosion cases and applying an improved AC corrosion prediction model. The diagrams of AC corrosion likelihood assessment in the standard ISO18086:2015 was used as a starting point. Correlations between field data (especially those provided through dig reports from AC corrosion anomalies) and the simulation results for different CP polarization levels, AC induced voltage, soil conditions (texture, soil resistivity and moisture) and coating defect properties (size and thickness) were investigated. The final goal is achieving a further refinement of the proposed AC corrosion criteria in previous project (EC-6-2) based on long-term AC corrosion behavior. This document has a related webinar.

Abstract:
Requirements for the fabrication and inspection of transmission pipeline girth welds are given in national codes such as API 1104, CSA Z662, and BS 4515. Their objective is to ensure an acceptable level of quality, and implicitly, operational safety. They seek to achieve this by imposing workmanship standards which prescribe the allowable size and frequency of various discontinuities. These standards are largely arbitrary and thus highly conservative in most situations. However, the potential for economic benefit, an increasing demand for safety, and the development of fracture mechanics technology have motivated the inclusion of optional fitness-for-service (FFS)-based flaw acceptance criteria. Two major objectives of the present work were to educate those unfamiliar with structural reliability concepts, particularly as they apply to pipeline integrity, and review the worldwide codification of LRFD for industries that fabricate and maintain welded structures. The final objective was to develop a library of PSFs for pipeline girth weld flaw assessment thereby aligning girth weld fitness-for-service assessment procedures with emerging LRFD codes for transmission pipelines.

Abstract:
Because ports are considered to be the heart of the maritime transportation system, thereby assessing port performance is necessary for a nation’s development and economic success. This study proposes a novel metric, namely, “port performance index (PPI)”, to determine the overall performance and utilization of inland waterway ports based on six criteria, port facility, port availability, port economics, port service, port connectivity, and port environment. Unlike existing literature, which mainly ranks ports based on quantitative factors, this study utilizes a Bayesian Network (BN) model that focuses on both quantitative and qualitative factors to rank a port. The assessment of inland waterway port performance is further analyzed based on different advanced techniques such as sensitivity analysis and belief propagation. Insights drawn from the study show that all the six criteria are necessary to predict PPI. The study also showed that port service has the highest impact while port economics has the lowest impact among the six criteria on PPI for inland waterway ports.

Abstract:
This paper presents preliminary numerical and experimental results obtained in an attempt to develop practical, reliability-based local buckling and collapse criteria for onshore and offshore pipelines that have experienced some form of metal-loss corrosion. The project was carried out in three phases involving finite element analysis, large-scale testing, and development of design criteria using reliability methodology. This paper summarizes the first two phases of this project including a characterization of corrosion defects, an assessment of the sensitivity of corrosion features based on finite element predictions, and test results of full-scale line pipe specimens.
