... mitigations such as in-line inspection frequencies or repair schedules. The method presented in this paper describes an alternative way of predicting the growth of corrosion defects in three dimensions by the application of statistical modeling. This method may be used to predict the increase in axial size...

... prediction model was developed by means of a statistical analysis of an extensive dig database that was compiled prior to 1998. This model was later updated and partially validated with 1999 and 2000 dig data. This paper summarizes the development and validation of the statistical model. stress corrosion...
