T5004 Mechanical Integrity
OverviewMechanical integrity is a key requirement for harnessing the tremendous hazard potential created by industrial operations dealing with toxic materials or large quantities of chemical, thermal, mechanical or electrical energy. MI failure is often the initiating event that leads to major fires or explosions. This session invites papers on all aspects of mechanical integrity, including system design, consequence analysis, reliability, maintenance, and near-miss or full-blown incident experience.
