Compare two formula Numerically (dt ≈ 15–45): the constant 1/3 is tiny compared to dt^2, so the two formulas are practically identical. Formula 1 is the exact CHS plastic moment written via dt and t. Formula 2 is a slightly simplified DNV approximation—replace 4/3 with 1 to get a neat (dt−1)^2 term. For realistic pipeline D/t, that simplification changes the result by well under 1%, which is why they feel “almost identical” in practice. See some comparisons below for D/t of 1

Talked to Copilot on Safety for young person, this is what I got: Very impressive and Copilot can easily change the color scheme for the one-page infographic. Guide for Parents: Respecting YPs & Supporting Independence 1. Build Trust Through Listening Give your child your full attention when they speak. Avoid interrupting or dismissing their feelings. Use phrases like: “I hear you” or “That sounds important to you.” 2. Set Clear, Fair Boundaries Rules should protect safety,

Internal Counterbore : A recessed cylindrical feature inside a hole, typically for bolt heads or nuts to sit flush. External Counterbore : A recessed cylindrical feature on the outer surface, often for clearance or seating purposes. Here’s a 3D view of internal and external counterbores : Unlike a counterbore hole, a countersink hole features a conical shape. It consists of a simple hole with a tapered recess above it. Creating this cone-shaped recess demands greater calculat
