Fatigue realibility and maintainability of marine structures

Wirsching, Paul H. / Torng, Tony Y. / Geyer, John F. / Stahl, Bernhard

AbstractThe integrity of structural systems relative to fatigue under variable amplitude loading and fracture under extreme loading can be ensured by a rational program which coordinates a design, inspection and repair process to minimize life-cycle costs. A Monte Carlo simulation is employed for performing fatigue and fracture reliability analysis, given a program of periodic inspection and repair. Fatigue crack growth is described by a fracture mechanics mode. Model parameters and other design factors are considered as random variables. Probability of failure estimates are used for an economic value analysis to establish optimal strategies for design and for a maintenace schedule. Application of the method to a marine structure is presented.
