Abstract:
We believe a holistic approach to problems in childhood and adolescence will benefit the child, adolescent, and the whole family. As a rule, children have far less to say in the family than their parents. Therefore, it is the parents who set the agenda and decide how things are done at home and in relation to the child. Most often, it is also the parents who have a problem when the child is not thriving. The child thus acts as the thermometer of the family. When children are not feeling well or are sick, the parents are not doing well either. Most problems arising from dysfunctional patterns are almost impossible for the parents to solve on their own, but with help and support from the holistically oriented physician, we believe that many problems can be discovered and solved. Not only can health problems be addressed, but also problems of poor thriving in the family in general. With the physician in the role of a coach, the family can be provided with relevant exercises that will change the patterns of dysfunction. Consciousness-based medicine also seems to be efficient with children and adolescents, who are much more sensitive to the psychosocial dimensions than adults. Five needs seem to be essential for the thriving and health of the child: attention, respect, love, acceptance (touch), and acknowledgment. The physician should be able to see if the child lacks fulfillment in one or more of these needs, and he can then demonstrate to the parents how these needs should be handled. This should be followed by simple instructions and exercises for the parents in the spirit of coaching. This approach is especially relevant when the child is chronically ill.

Abstract:
The treatment of a disease in the oral-dental area must be conducted taking into account the overall health of the body, the patient throughout his individuality. Any modification of the oral cavity is reflected in its physical and mental condition. Based on these ideas, the homeopathic treatment of dental diseases develops, in an attempt to provide a holistic approach to each patient.

Abstract:
Non-surgical cosmetic procedures have been undertaken for a number of years. It is fair to say that, in this time, there has been a notable difference in the way that treatment plans are approached by practitioners. This is most prevalent in more recent years, when the decision to treat patient concerns in isolation has moved to a holistic, full-face approach, taking into account not only the key concern that has brought the patient to a clinic, but other significant issues that may require carefully addressing, such as overall skin health and quality.

Abstract:
The use of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) or Best Management Practice (BMP) is becoming increasingly common. However, rather than adopting the preferred “treatment train” implementation, many developments opt for end of pipe control ponds. This paper discusses the use of SuDS in series to form treatment trains and compares their potential performance and effectiveness with end of pipe solutions. Land-use, site and catchment characteristics have been used alongside up-to-date guidance, Infoworks CS and MUSIC to determine whole-life-costs, land-take, water quality and water quantity for different SuDS combinations. The results presented show that the use of a treatment train allows approaches differing from the traditional use of single SuDS, either source or “end of pipe”, to be proposed to treat and attenuate runoff. The outcome is a more flexible solution where the footprint allocated to SuDS, costs and water quality can be managed differently to satisfy more efficiently the holistically stakeholders' objectives.

Abstract:
Provoked vulvodynia (PVD) is a disorder characterized by intense vulvar pain, most often reported as raw, burning, or stinging tissue. Current treatment options for PVD are insufficient and narrow in focus, as they predominantly address the physical pain associated with the disorder. Current publications regarding cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness treatment indicate that both therapies are highly effective. Mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapies are noninvasive, efficacious long term, and provide a comprehensive biopsychosocial approach. The aim of this study is to educate nurse practitioners regarding these treatment options, which manage the physical as well as psychosocial aspects of PVD.

Abstract:
Clinicians have a wide-variety of therapy materials, activities, techniques, and procedures available for treatment of children with morphosyntax deficits. This clinically-focused article describes strategies that highlight the critical features of morphosyntactic targets, reviews, techniques, and procedures available to clinicians for their mindful use, and advocates for the addition of distributed learning in daily contexts by involving caregivers in language facilitation. It concludes with a proposal for a holistic approach that encompasses three levels of language intervention. At the first level, the clinician overtly primes the child's system; at the second level, the clinician sets up multiple opportunities to use the target in context; at the third level, the clinician engages caregivers as agents of intervention for distributed learning and sends the child out into a language-facilitating environment.

Abstract:

The process of allocating necessary resources like clean water, fuel/energy and food have resulted in an unsustainable use of natural resources causing problems with Soil erosion, soil fertility, desertification, deforestation, eutrophication and global warming. The purpose of this study was to gain information on the functional design of a waste management system enabling the organic components of domestic waste to be processed as useful resources while at the same time allow them to be re-circulated. The main part of this study was carried out at the Kendu SDA Hospital in the Rachyonyo district in western Kenya. For the case of this study two main objectives where chosen. The first was to develop a principal technological solution using three classed “appropriate technologies” found suitable for the purpose namely biogas, ecological water treatment systems and slow sand filtration. The second was to further analyse each included technology to further develop their potential to fit the concept. Results from the pilot facilities where then to be retrieved from the actual component selection and construction process itself, with performance analysis left for future studies.

The main purpose of the biogas system study has been to evaluate the original ideas of overall concept, details, materials and construction methods. The 1 m3 biogas system has improved significantly during the development process and is today not far from an implementation, i.e. construction on a slightly larger scale. The biogas system developed during the project has proven to have potential for digestion of both latrine and kitchen waste. Using the two as fuel for the process does not only remove a problem – it grants several benefits.

The ecological waste water treatment system main objective was to design and construct a pilot SSF-wetland. Results show that the construction process for smaller scaled SSF systems is simple and does not require trained personnel or specialized equipment and that significant cost reduction can be made by using locally available materials.

The slow sand filtration sub system concept is called PT SCX and though still in the stage of development proved to have great potential concerning both efficiency and sustainability. The PT SCX comprises the advantages of slow sand filtration with further development of individual system solutions. It was adapted to enable both integration to the IWESS solution and stand alone installations purifying even highly turbid surface water sources to drinking water quality.

The result from the study confirms the suitability of the three included technologies, ecological waste water treatment, biogas and slow sand filtration to work in an integrated system called IWESS- Integrated Water Energy and Sanitation Solution. The combined subsystems can together with source separated sewage offer full resource recovery enabling recirculation of both nutrients and water. In addition the system can be designed as a net producer of renewable and emission free energy.

Abstract:
Doutoramento em Engenharia Informática
Em sistemas distribuídos o paradigma utilizado para interacção entre tarefas é a troca de mensagens. Foram propostas várias abordagens que permitem a especificação do fluxo de dados entre tarefas, mas para sistemas de temporeal é necessário uma definição mais rigorosa destes fluxos de dados. Nomeadamente, tem de ser possível a especificação dos parâmetros das tarefas e das mensagens, e a derivação dos parâmetros não especificados. Uma tal abordagem poderia permitir o escalonamento e despacho automático de tarefas e de mensagens, ou pelo menos, poderia reduzir o número de iterações durante o desenho do sistema. Os fluxos de dados constituem uma abordagem possível ao escalonamento e despacho holístico em sistemas distribuídos de tempo-real, onde são realizadas diferentes tipos de análises que correlacionam os vários parâmetros. Os resultados podem ser utilizados para definir o nível de memória de suporte que é necessário em cada nodo do sistema distribuído. Em sistemas distribuídos baseados em FTT, é possível implementar um escalonamento holístico centralizado, no qual se consideram as interdependências entre tarefas produtoras/consumidoras e mensagens. O conjunto de restrições que garante a realização do sistema pode ser derivado dos parâmetros das tarefas e das mensagens, tais como os períodos e os tempos de execução/transmissão. Nesta tese, são estudadas duas perspectivas, uma perspectiva centrada na rede, i.e. em que o escalonamento de mensagens é feito antes do escalonamento de tarefas, e outra perspectiva centrada no nodo. Um mecanismo simples de despacho de tarefas e de mensagens para sistemas distribuídos baseados em CAN é também proposto neste trabalho. Este mecanismo estende o já existente em FTT para despacho de mensagens. O estudo da implementação deste mecanismo nos nodos deu origem à especificação de um núcleo de sistema operativo. Procurou-se que este introduzisse uma sobrecarga mínima de modo a poder ser incluído em nodos de baixo poder computacional. Neste trabalho, é apresentado um simulador, SimHol, para prever o cumprimento temporal da transmissão de mensagens e da execução das tarefas num sistema distribuído. As entradas para o simulador são os chamados fluxos de dados, que incluem as tarefas produtoras, as mensagens correspondentes e as tarefas que utilizam os dados transmitidos. Utilizando o tempo de execução no pior caso e o tempo de transmissão, o simulador é capaz de verificar se os limites temporais são cumpridos em cada nodo do sistema e na rede.
In distributed systems the communication paradigm used for intertask interaction is the message exchange. Several approaches have been proposed that allow the specification of the data flow between tasks, but in real-time systems a more accurate definition of these data flows is mandatory. Namely, the specification of the required tasks’ and messages’ parameters and the derivation of the unspecified parameters have to be possible. Such an approach could allow an automatic scheduling and dispatching of tasks and messages or, at least, could reduce the number of iterations during the system’s design. The data streams present a possible approach to the holistic scheduling and dispatching in real-time distributed systems where different types of analysis that correlate the various parameters are done. The results can be used to define the level of buffering that is required at each node of the distributed system. In FTT-based distributed systems it is possible to implement a centralized holistic scheduling, taking into consideration the interdependences between producer/consumer tasks and messages. A set of constraints that guarantee the system feasibility can then be derived from tasks and messages’ parameters such as the periods and execution/transmission times. In this thesis the net-centric perspective, i.e., the one in which the scheduling of messages is done prior to the scheduling of tasks, and the node-centric perspectives are studied. A simple mechanism to dispatch tasks and messages for CAN-based distributed systems is also proposed in this work. This mechanism extends the one that exists in the FTT for the dispatching of messages. The study of the implementation of this mechanism in the nodes gave birth to the specification of a kernel. A goal for this kernel was to achieve a low overhead so that it could be included in nodes with low processing power. In this work a simulator to preview the timeliness of the transmission of messages and of the execution of tasks in a distributed system is presented. The inputs to the simulator are the so-called data streams, which include the producer tasks, the correspondent messages and the tasks that use the transmitted data. Using the worst-case execution time and transmission time, the simulator is able to verify if deadlines are fulfilled in every node of the system and in the network.

There has been increased interest in understanding the significant disparity in U.S. households’ retirement preparedness due to concern about the stability of Social Security benefits, the shift from defined benefit plans to defined contribution plans, and the decreased rate of saving. This dissertation explores a model that can be utilized to understand and enhance retirement preparedness by individuals, educators, practitioners, and policy makers. Retirement preparedness was measured in two different ways—using the income replacement rate and the capital accumulation ratio—for two separate empirical models. The general conceptualization of the framework is based on the retirement planning work of Hershey (2004). This study utilized the 2008 Rand version (Version L) of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) and 2006, 2008, and 2010 psychosocial and lifestyle questionnaire. The Rand HRS data file is a user-friendly version of the HRS data and contains cleaned data. The two hierarchical regressions were used to analyze the association between retirement preparedness and the theoretical concepts of cultural influence, environmental influence, task components, and psychological influence. Entering the conceptual components as four separate blocks allows for observation of changes in R[2] based on the addition of the conceptual components. This research investigates the following research questions: (a) How strongly are cultural influences associated with retirement preparedness?, (b) How strongly are environmental influences associated with retirement preparedness?, (c) How strongly are task components associated with retirement preparedness?, and (d) How strongly are psychological influences associated with retirement preparedness? Current retirement planning practices are often based on structural profiles such as financial resources, financial needs, and goals. The holistic approach used for this dissertation is based on the awareness of the influence of psychological and personal factors on financial decision making. The results showed that the variables positively associated with the retirement income replacement rate were self-perception of aging, homeownership, stock ownership, household pension ownership, IRA/Keogh ownership, and business ownership. Pre-retirement income log had a highly negative association with the retirement income replacement ratio. Big Five personality and perceived mastery were not significant. However, when asset ownership (excluding homeownership) was not controlled, conscientiousness and low emotional stability became significant and showed a positive association for conscientiousness and a negative association for low emotional stability. Self-perception of aging was a significant psychological variable in both models. The significant variables from the second model measured by the capital accumulation ratio were asset ownerships including homeownership, stock ownership, IRA ownership, real estate ownership, and business ownership. None of the psychological variables were significant, except for agreeableness, which was related negatively to the capital accumulation ratio when the asset ownerships (excluding home ownership) were not controlled. Other significant variables, when asset ownership was not controlled, were home ownership, pre-retirement income log, being non-White.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to explore the idea and method of holistic education and if traces of these can be found in four preschool teachers’ statements about their practices in two private preschools located in the state of Tamil Nadu in India. Working holistically is something which UNESCO (Marope & Kaga, 2015) recommends when it comes to early childhood care and education. In a developing country like India primary education is important to growth and development. It is one of the main sustainable development goals and early childhood education is considered a means to reach this goal. This study aims to provide some insight into what a holistic approach to early childhood education can entail. In this study I have explored literature to gain a theoretical knowledge of the idea and working methods of holistic education through a literature review. I then conducted a qualitative interview study where I traced the ideas and methods found in the literature in four preschool teachers’ statements about their practices to gain an understanding of what ideas and methods found in a preschool setting can be considered to lead to holistic outcomes. The results show that the idea and methods of holistic education, as I understand it through the literature review, were evident in the teachers’ statements to various extent, and that that inclusion, balance and connections lead to holistic education. Even though the teachers do not explicitly work with holistic education as Miller (2007, 2010) describes it, this study found that the practices of the teachers, as described by them, promote similar ideas and the same methods could be found. This study can provide a concrete understanding of what a holistic approach to early childhood education can and should involve.

Abstract:
Researchers are calling on practitioners to use more robust mixed-method approaches in program and product evaluations in the global development sector. Using qualitative and quantitative research methods from both experimental engineering and applied anthropology fields can provide more holistic and accurate information regarding potential impact and application of a product or program in its actual usage context. This paper presents a mixed-method approach for the evaluation of a new water treatment technology, the InStove Water Purifier. A combination of technical and ethnographic methods are used to estimate the product’s efficacy in a high-school dormitory in Mbale, a city in Eastern Uganda. Methods include participant observation, focal follow, time allocation and data collection of system parameters including fuel usage, flowrate, and temperature. Additionally, a holistic approach to water treatment implementation is applied by experimentally evaluating water storage treatment methods to prevent recontamination of water before its point-of-use. This study highlights the importance of method triangulation and, more specifically, the value of ethnographic methods to evaluate engineering solutions. While two methods concluded statistically insignificant results (time allocation and fuel usage) due to limited sample size and duration of the study, this work emphasizes the value that comes from working closely with end-users in an uncontrolled experimental environment. Informal interviewing during participant observation combined with time allocation and fuel usage data show a high potential for user acceptance due to the Purifier’s time and fuel savings (42% and 67% savings; respectively), increased water capacity, and reduction of emissions. Potential barriers to user adoption of the Purifier, identified in this study, include the trust required by users, lack of water outlet temperature control, and a size change of fuel wood. These findings have been reported to InStove, the manufacturer of the product, to begin design modifications to improve its potential impact to users. Ultimately, this paper aims to encourage engineering practitioners to become more comfortable performing ethnographic methods and integrating qualitative data to more accurately evaluate their projects in the field and provide design changes that increase user adoption and sustained impact.

Abstract:
The today’s energy market requires highly efficient power plants under flexible operating conditions. Especially, the fluctuating availability of renewables demands higher cycling of fossil fired power plants. The need for highly efficient steam turbines is driven by CO2 reduction programs and depletion of fossil resources. Increased efficiency requires higher steam temperatures up to 630°C in today’s units or even more for future steam power plants. The gap between material properties in the hot and cold running parts of a steam turbine rotor is widened by increased live steam temperatures and the increased demand for flexibility. These technical challenges are accompanied by economic aspects, i.e. the market requirements have to be met at reasonable costs. The welding of steam turbine rotors is one measure to balance required material properties and economical solutions. The rotor is a core component of the steam turbine and its long-term integrity is a key factor for reliable and safe operation of the power plant. An important aspect of weld quality is the determination of permissible size of weld imperfections assessed by fracture mechanics methods. The integrity of rotor weld joints is assured by ultrasonic inspection after the final post weld heat treatment with respect to fracture mechanics allowable flaw sizes. This procedure usually does not take credit from the quality measures applied during monitoring of the welding process. This paper provides an overview of an holistic design approach for steam turbine rotor weld joints comprising the welding process and its improved online monitoring, non-destructive evaluation, material technology, and its fracture mechanics assessment. The corresponding quality measures and their interaction with fracture mechanics design of the weld joint are described. The application of this concept allows to exploit the potentials of weld joints and to assure a safe turbine operation over life time.

Abstract:
Abstract Excessive water production from hydrocarbon reservoirs is a serious issue faced by the industry, particularly for mature fields. Higher water cut adversely affects the economics of the producing wells, thus it is undesirable. Disposal and reinjection of ever-increasing volumes of produced water poses additional liability. A significant challenge faced in the mature Umm Gudair field is assuring hydrocarbon flow through high water-prone intervals. In recent times, field development strategies have begun to prioritize new well intervention technology because of the advantages of minimized water cut, higher production rates, and improved overall reserve recovery (hydrocarbon in place). This paper discusses the field implementation of a downhole chemical methodology, "first of its kind" designed and applied, that has created a positive impact in overall productivity. To solve these challenges, the treatment was highly modified as fit-for-purpose to address the unique challenges of electric submersible pump (ESP)-driven well operations, formation technical difficulties, high-stakes economics, and high-water potential from these formations. A unique Organically Crosslinked Polymer (OCP) system with a tail-in Rigid Setting Material (RSM) system was implemented as a porosity-fill sealant in a high-water-cut well to selectively reduce water production. A pre-flush was pumped ahead of the treatment to remove deposits that could have prevented the polymer from effective gelation. The treatment was then overdisplaced with brine. The OCP system is injected into the formation as a low viscosity solution using the spot and hesitation squeeze method via bullheading. It activates at a predicted time to form a 3-D rigid hydrogel to completely shut off matrix permeability, fractures, fissures, and channels, thus creating an artificial barrier seal in the reservoir. The tail-in near wellbore RSM system rapidly develops a high compressive strength to avoid any formation loss before setting. This holistic approach helps to create a robust sealant for blocking the unwanted water-producing zone, impeding water flow, and facilitating increased hydrocarbon flow. A direct comparison of the application of this system with conventional cement squeeze treatments is presented to illustrate the advantage of having a deep matrix penetration for a more efficient water shutoff in this field. A direct result of the implemented treatment is that the post-operation well test and production data showed a high-sustained production at lower rate with significantly reduced watercut, confirming this technology is one of successful chemical water shut off techniques this field. This paper summarizes the candidate selection, design processes, challenges encountered, and production response, and can be considered a best practice for addressing high water production challenges in similar conditions in other fields.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to establish a concise structural model of the human musculoskeletal system (HMS) that can be used to clinically treat malfunctions or distortions of the human body. This model must be uncomplicated for therapists to identify the problematic areas of the human body with adequate visualization while maintaining a theoretical thoroughness in mechanics. To achieve this objective, a system theory approach called the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) has been applied to bridge multi-body dynamics and clinical observations. From a mechanical engineering viewpoint, this HMS system can be treated as a collection of joint connected 15 rigid bodies in a topological tree configuration with 35 Degrees-of-Freedom (DOF). Alternatively, from a clinical viewpoint, the functioning of the joints is a major concern since most malfunctions or distortions take place around the joints. Based on 20 years of accumulated clinical observation data, we have discovered that all HMS movements can be constructed by a combination of 35 fundamental motion elements, all having a certain degree of interaction with each other. By applying the ISM for a matrix representation of the HMS system, we have obtained the following results: 1) The association between the rotation of the joints and the fundamental motion elements is represented by a square matrix of dimension N, where N is twice of the DOF 2) The determinant of this matrix, corresponding to the N-square matrix in SE terminology, gives an evaluation criteria in selecting the fundamental elements; 3) Application of the ISM reveals a distinction between an active motion element with intention versus an associated motion element that is induced by another motion element(s). In addition, the ISM yields a tiered structure of the fundamental motion elements according to the degree of activeness; and 4) most important, an overall investigation of the matrix characteristics gives a means to identify imbalances or distortions within the HMS. With the help of a motion diagram for the purpose of visualization, this research can eventually be applied to clinical observations whereby an automated identification of malfunctioning parts can be achieved with computer software. The above stated results will contribute to a holistic and non-invasive approach for medical care and rehabilitation.

Abstract:
Abstract This study compares reservoir characteristics, completion methods and production for 431 wells in 6 counties producing from the Wichita-Albany reservoir to assess major factors in production optimization and derive ultimate recovery estimates. The purpose of the study is to analyze completion design patterns across the study area by combining public and proprietary data for mining. Integrating several analyses of different nature and their respective methods like statistics, geology and engineering create a modern approach as well as a more holistic point of view when certain measurements are missing from the data set. Furthermore, multivariate statistical analysis allows modeling the impact of particular completion and stimulation parameters on the production outcome by averaging out the impact of all other variables in the system. In addition to completion type, more than 18 predictor variables were examined, including treatment parameters such as fracture fluid volume, year of completion, cumulative perforated length, proppant type, proppant amount, and county location, among others. In this sense, this contribution seems unique in unifying statistical, engineering, and geological perspectives into a singular point of view. This work also provides complementary views for well production consideration.

Vines, Sarah, and David Lever. "An Integrated Approach to Geological Disposal of UK Wastes Containing Carbon-14." In ASME 2013 15th International Conference on Environmental Remediation and Radioactive Waste Management. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2013. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icem2013-96342.

Full text
Abstract:
Carbon-14 is a key radionuclide in the assessment of the safety of a geological disposal facility for radioactive waste because of the calculated assessment of the radiological consequences of gaseous carbon-14 bearing species [i]. It may be that such calculations are based on overly conservative assumptions and that better understanding could lead to considerably reduced assessment of the radiological consequences from these wastes. Alternatively, it may be possible to mitigate the impact of these wastes through alternative treatment, packaging or design options. The Radioactive Waste Management Directorate of the UK’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA RWMD) has established an integrated project team in which the partners are working together to develop a holistic approach to carbon-14 management in the disposal system [ii]. For a waste stream containing carbon-14 to be an issue: • There must be a significant inventory of carbon-14 in the waste stream; AND • That waste stream has to generate carbon-14 bearing gas; AND • A bulk gas phase has to entrain the carbon-14 bearing gas: AND • These gases must migrate through the engineered barriers in significant quantities; AND • These gases must migrate through the overlying geological environment (either as a distinct gas phase or as dissolved gas); AND • These gases must interact with materials in the biosphere (i.e. plants) in a manner that leads to significant doses and risks to exposed groups or potentially exposed groups. The project team has developed and used this “AND” approach to structure and prioritise the technical work and break the problem down in a manageable way. We have also used it to develop our approach to considering alternative treatment, packaging and design options. For example, it may be possible to pre-treat some wastes to remove some of the inventory or to segregate other wastes so that they are removed from any bulk gas phase which might facilitate migration through the geosphere. Initially, the project team has undertaken a six month programme of work to examine the current understanding of these aspects and has captured this in the Phase 1 report [ii], in a modelling basis spreadsheet and in scoping assessments, which help us better understand the potential significance of carbon-14. Using the current modelling basis, but ignoring any potential benefits from the geosphere in retarding or preventing gas from reaching the surface, the calculated release of carbon-14 is dominated by: corrosion of irradiated reactive metals (in the operational and early post-closure time frame); corrosion of irradiated stainless steel and leaching of irradiated graphite (in the longer term). The Phase 1 work has shown that there is considerable scope for reducing the calculated radiological consequence for these wastes and a roadmap has been developed for a second Phase of work.

Abstract:
In 1958, General Curtis E. LeMay established the structural integrity program for the United States Air Force (USAF). Since then, the USAF has been honing the requirements for extending the service life, durability, and safety of aircraft. These requirements have evolved to include Damage Tolerance principles that encompass the design and the management of aircraft with the objective of reducing maintenance burdens and ensure structural integrity for airworthiness, safety, and mission capability. Recently, requirements of some agencies and companies include Holistic Life Structural Integrity Process (HOLSIP) and concepts aimed at improving the early prediction and detection of structural discontinuities that can pose a safety concern. HOLSIP is intended to reduce the inspection & maintenance cycle while identifying prevention and mitigative measures to be employed. This holistic methodology addresses the total life of components and related issues. It is a physics based approach that incorporates the interaction of known possible degradation mechanisms and their potential failure modes. It provides the basis for analytical, experimental and procedural methods to make structural integrity predictions of components from the design, manufacturing, commissioning, maintenance and inspection intervals that would meet the desired level of safety and reliability. Non-destructive evaluation methods are incorporated in this approach as well. As part of continuing to ensure the safety and reliability of pipelines systems, the energy pipeline industry performs periodic risk assessments and maintenance activities and can enhance current integrity management programs by adopting HOLSIP principles and framework. In the early 2000s, pipeline industry associations and government regulators published a risk assessment based process for prioritizing pipeline segments for inspection and remediation. These processes have been formally integrated into an Integrity Management Program (IMP). By incorporating risk assessments and periodic inspections as part of the IMP, energy pipeline operators have achieved great success in removing damage that can pose an immediate or short-term safety concern to the public, environment and piping facilities. However, in-service pipeline failures continue to occur suggesting that the treatment of integrity threats, degradation mechanisms and failure modes is still fragmented. There needs to be a strong sense of wholeness in the approach to managing pipeline integrity. The absence of this can lead to unnecessary inspections and assessments, early pipeline retirements, over conservative assumptions or worse, further in-service accidents. As energy pipelines around the world continue to age and their safe performance is expected to increase, the need for HOLSIP becomes more apparent. This paper provides an overview of the fundamental principles and concepts of a holistic approach developed for maintaining aircraft fleets and how they apply to structural integrity engineering assessments for pipelines. A comparison with the current pipeline integrity management practices and regulations is highlighted.
