Design, Manufacture and Operation of Pressurised Components; Structural Integrity; Plant Life Management

Pressure vessel engineering technology is of importance in many branches of industry. This journal publishes the latest research results and related information on all its associated aspects, with particular emphasis on the structural integrity assessment, maintenance and life extension of pressurised process engineering plants.

The anticipated coverage of the International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping ranges from simple mass-produced pressure vessels to large custom-built vessels and tanks. Pressure vessels technology is a developing field, and contributions on the following topics will therefore be welcome:
Pressure vessel engineering
Structural integrity assessment
Design methods
• Codes and standards
Fabrication, welding, and emerging advanced manufacturing processes, e.g., additive manufacturing (AM)
Fabrication and welding
Materials properties requirements
• Inspection and quality management
Maintenance and life extension
Ageing and environmental effects
Life management
Application of machine learning to pressure vessels technology

Of particular importance are papers covering aspects of significant practical application which could lead to major improvements in economy, reliability and useful life. While most accepted papers represent the results of original applied research, critical reviews of topical interest by world-leading experts will also appear from time to time.

International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping is indispensable reading for engineering professionals involved in the energy, petrochemicals, process plant, transport, aerospace and related industries; for manufacturers of pressure vessels and ancillary equipment; and for academics pursuing research in these areas.

Note to the authors:

The journal only accepts papers studying fluid dynamics if they have included fluid-solid interaction.
