Why Sustainable System Design?Why Sustainable System Design?
• Numerous major systems are in-service beyondNumerous major systems are in service beyond the original design life because replacement of these systems is not a high priority.
• Systems operated beyond their service life behave unpredictably and are difficult to manage.
• Maintenance of systems in use beyond their i lif i l b iservice life is costly because it was not
anticipated during the planning and design processprocess.

• For the most part traditional engineeringFor the most part traditional engineering design has resulted in systems which perform well during the intended serviceperform well during the intended service life.
• For the most part these systems are in use• For the most part these systems are in use beyond the intended service life.N dl t th t t• Needless to say these systems were not designed to be maintain in service beyond th i t d d i lifthe intended service life.
Traditional Engineering DesignTraditional Engineering Design
• Philosophy general – design make surePhilosophy general design, make sure it’s built as designed, operates as designed do minor maintenancedesigned, do minor maintenance, decommission
• Philosophy specific select materials• Philosophy specific – select materials based on specified performance limits, size the components so that the stresssize the components so that the stress levels avoid overload or failure due to fatigue or environmental effectsfatigue or environmental effects
It is suggested that the instructor show an episode or portion of an episode of the National Geographic World’s Toughest Fixes in order to emphasize the magnitude of the effort required to repair major systems. Encourage the students to look for ways that the design might have been altered to facilitate such repair as well as ways to monitor the system to provide an early warning of the need for repair.
Traditional design mindsetg• Creating a system which will not fail during the
established service periodestablished service period.• Avoid issues with difficult to access components.
D t il f d d l t i l t i• Details of damage development irrelevant since by design they will not become important until after the service lifeafter the service life.
• Maintenance is limited to minor issues such as replacing light bulbs or changing lubricants.replacing light bulbs or changing lubricants.
In the USA most major systems are d i d d b ilt fdesigned and built for an owner.

I th USA th / t iIn the USA the owner/operator is responsible for maintenance, which is
i t d d t b i d i th i lifintended to be minor during the service life.
Since we are designing to avoid failure our mechanical testing is conducted to supportmechanical testing is conducted to support this approach. • Components areComponents are
sized to limit the stress below strength limits. (uniaxial tension)
• Components are sized to lower the stress so the cycles in service can be

service can be accommodated. (S-N curve)
Our properties databases offer no insight into when and where degradation occurs even though e a d e e deg adat o occu s e e t oug
technology exists to detect and track it.

Why owners/managers should be fl d!flogged!
• Traditional design expects that once theTraditional design expects that once the system, structure, or component reaches the design life it will be replacedthe design life it will be replaced.
• Invariably owners/managers observe that many critical costly systems are stillmany critical, costly systems are still functioning at the design life … so why not continue to use them LIFE EXTENSIONcontinue to use them… LIFE EXTENSION
• You don’t extend life you extend USE!!!

Note- The “Condition” plot is hypothetical since typically the condition is not being monitored.
Overlooked Consequences of Use-Extension
• Assessing systems to justify Use-Extension is especially g y j y p yexpensive since the design did not anticipate this need.– Some components may be inaccessible so it is not
ibl t d t i th i t ditipossible to determine their current condition• Assessing components prior to the formation of cracks
which can be reliably detected is not currently possiblewhich can be reliably detected is not currently possible so remaining useful life is difficult to estimate.
• Detailed assessment of degradation is needed to d t i h it ill b ff t d b th tidetermine how it will be affected by the operating environment.
A Better Paradigm in Light of RealityA Better Paradigm in Light of Reality
• Consider maintenance and associated inspection pduring the initial planning and design phases--- why and when do materials degrade and components start to fail?

Summaryy• Current engineering design generally does not
see the need for NDT after the system issee the need for NDT after the system is properly built and placed into service.
• Design based on fixed service-life is the ideal gbut not the reality.
• The design approach taught in colleges of engineering must change to consider maintenance and NDE during the planning and d i hdesign phase.
• The purpose of this module is to start this process for engineering design coursesprocess for engineering design courses.

Discipline Experts to support Sustainable design
Planning and design teams typically consult discipline g g yp y pexperts for in depth input regarding aspects of the design. Examples of discipline experts:
St t l l i– Structural analysis– Loads associated with operation– Materials– Materials
Since it is unrealistic to expect all design engineers to have strong background knowledge of materials degradation and the associated methods for detecting and tracking it a new discipline expert is needed- NDE Engineer.
