HYB130

This course teaches you all the fundamentals required for performing vibration measurements for pipe stress assessment.

It includes discussions of the mechanics involved in piping vibrations, their potential causes, but also guidelines for estimated the severity and detailed analysis techniques. By means of real-life cases, typical mitigation techniques are presented.

The course provides a toolbox to understand and investigate piping vibrations. You will be able to quickly assess whether a piping vibration might be an issue for the integrity of the system and can plan a more detailed analysis based on this assessment.

The course starts with an overview of important concepts such as potential sources of vibrations and existing rules of thumb for assessment. It also includes a detailed discussion of the information required for a detailed dynamic stress assessment in pipe stress software and the associated considerations.

The course consists of 4 online, self-paced learning modules and 1 interactive, online live sessions with the instructor. Recordings of the live sessions and related training content are provided through our online portal.
