Multi Axial Fatigue of Notches and Welded Components

ABOUT THE COURSE

What this course does is presenting an approach which has had considerable success, which can already be recommended for industrial use and which merits further investigation by the research community. The course begins by reviewing those basic definitions that are suitable for calculating the stress quantities commonly used to perform the fatigue assessment. Pivotal concepts which should always be kept in mind when designing components against fatigue are summarised (mainly considering uniaxial and torsional situations). The Modified Wöhler Curve Method (MWCM) is then explained in great detail, by focusing attention on both the high- and the medium-cycle fatigue regime. The procedure suitable for employing the MWCM to estimate fatigue damage both in notched and in welded components is explained, by focusing attention on the most efficient way to
estimate fatigue strength by post-processing Finite Element results.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Engineers and scientists involved in the design, operation and assessment of both onshore and offshore structures.
