Offshore pipeline is mainly to transport crude oil and gas from offshore to onshore. It is also used to transport crude oil and gas from well to offshore platform and from platform to another platform. The crude oil and gas horizontally flows on the seabed, and then vertically flows inside the riser to the offshore platform. One of current issues of the oil and gas transportation system is an end expansion caused by the axial force. If the end expansion occurs over it limit can cause overstress to riser. This paper explores the effect of axial force toward local buckling in end expansion. In the study, development of programming in visual basic 2010 firstly was constructed using empirical equation. The programming code, then, was validated by comparing simulation result with actual data from company. As case study, the end expansion for various thicknesses of pipes was simulated. In this programming, DNV regulation is included for checking either design complied or not with regulation. However, DNV regulation doesn’t have specific rule regarding the end expansion but it is evaluated under load displacement control under strain condition.

There is a need in engineering education toimprove the connection between design and engineeringscience. Students should be provided more opportunitiesto practice applying both science and design to a singleproblem in order to be better prepared for challengesthey will face when they enter the workforce. For thisreason, an instructor of a first year engineering sciencecourse was motivated to improve its connection to theCanadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB)Attributes, specifically the Design attribute. The goal wasto revise the course such that the students would berequired to integrate quantitative methods that weretaught during the term through the means of design. Itwas decided that an effective pedagogical tool that couldaccomplish this was a case study, since it would providecomplexity and context using a real-world issue thatrelated to several course concepts. The methodology forcase development, implementation strategy, future steps,lessons learned, as well as the instructor’s observationswill be discussed.

Effective Teaching And Learning

The T-Scan is an effective patient education tool for illustrating existing occlusal pathology. It presents complex occlusal information in a visual format that is easily understood. The T-Scan applies to all stages of the teaching/learning process because its recorded data forms the framework upon which a doctor/patient discussion can begin regarding the patient's occlusal disease manifestations, the potential benefit of treatments, and the risks of not undergoing corrective treatment. When used as part of an educational strategy, the T-Scan can lead the patient to accept procedures that would benefit their long-term dental health. This chapter outlines the four stages of creating optimum dental health, the steps required to perform effective teaching and learning, the differing styles of teaching and learning utilized in educational forums, and how to best employ the technique of Feature, Function, and Benefit. A case study illustrates how T-Scan data can educate a patient about their own occlusal problems.
