Such strong steels allow for operating the pipelines under higher pressures and over a long distance. Such microalloyed steels often can contain such elements as Mn, Nb, V, Ti, Mo, Ni, Cr, and Cu. (a) What other factors must be considered for high-strength steels for oil pipelines? (b) Based on what you have learned in terms of mechanisms of strengthening, how can you choose the best possible alloying elements for this application? Assume that you can conduct whatever experiments are necessary.arrow_forwardExplain how the properties and structure of different given engineering materials affect their behaviour in given engineering applications: 1) The Hep2O® push fit plumbing system uses fittings and pipe work manufactured from polybutylene (PB).
