This disclosure relates generally to corrugated pipe, and more particularly to corrugated pipe with an outer wrap. In one embodiment, a pipe includes an axially extended bore defined by a corrugated outer wall having axially adjacent, outwardly-extending corrugation crests, separated by corrugation valleys. The pipe also includes an outer wrap applied to the outer wall. The outer wrap may include fibers and plastic. The outer wrap may span the corrugation crests producing a smooth outer surface.

A riser system with a primary conduit extends between a surface vessel and a subsea location and an auxiliary conduit that extends adjacent the primary conduit. In one example a composite jumper conduit extends from the surface vessel and is fluidly connected to the auxiliary conduit. The jumper conduit includes a composite material formed of at least a matrix and one or more reinforcing elements embedded within the matrix. In one example a subsea composite jumper conduit extends from subsea infrastructure and is fluidly connected to the auxiliary conduit. The subsea jumper conduit includes a composite material formed of at least a matrix and one or more reinforcing elements embedded within the matrix.

An exhaust lining for an exhaust system of a motor vehicle has a first connecting element clamped between a first and second pipe. The first pipe forms a tailpipe. The second pipe forms a tailpipe cover. The tailpipe cover has a tubular inner part held on by means of the first connecting element which clings onto the first pipe via by means of a lever mechanism. A load arm of the lever mechanism, having the distance A, is shorter than an effort arm, having the distance B. The length of the effort arm is precisely defined, because the end of the effort arm lies against the first pipe via a punctiform contact area. A first contact surface of a clamping spring is designed offset from the longitudinal extent of a main body of the first connecting element to save space in the longitudinal direction of the main body.

Composite materials are described herein. The composite materials include a polymer matrix comprising at least one fluorinated homo- or copolymer and continuous fibers dispersed within the polymer matrix. The continuous fibers are present within the composite material in an amount between about 10 wt % and about 90 wt % of a weight of the composite material. The composite materials also include a filler dispersed within the polymer matrix. The filler is present within the composite material in an amount between about 5 wt % and about 25 wt % of an amount of the polymer matrix.

A system and method for a process to prepare piping such that it has a reduced chance of having biological organisms developing or growing within it by means of the addition of a metal structure to at least a portion of the inner wall of the piping. The system utilizes a limited amount of metal on or close to the inside wall of the piping to retard or suppress the growth of biological organisms within the piping. The limited amount of metal inside the pipe does not materially interfere with the structural aspects or performance of the pipe, nor does it significantly increasing the material costs of the pipe, while providing a unique and novel improved anti-biologic organism performance. The system is suitable for residential or commercial use.
