Advanced Assessment of Hydrogen Damage Using API 579 & Abaqus (FEM + Classical K-Approach)
\nThis intensive course equips engineers with the skills to perform Level 3 Fitness-for-Service (FFS) evaluations of hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) using API 579 Part 7 and Part 9 (Annex 9G). Participants will learn to model damage using nonlinear finite element methods (FEM), extract fracture parameters, and make integrity decisions based on Failure Assessment Diagrams (FAD).<\/p>\n
