Book Description
The fatigue phenomenon process in structural elements and connections. The tubular welded joints used in the construction of offshore structures can experience millions of variable amplitude load cycles during their service life. Such fatigue loading represents a main cause of degradation in these structures. As a result, fatigue is an important consideration in their design. Fatigue and Fracture Mechanisms of Offshore Structures present novel research and the results of wave-induced stress on the operational life of offshore structures. Increasing oil consumption in the world and scarcity of land-oil resources due to political and economical reasons has caused offshore oil exploration and production to become a growing investigation field in the past six decades. The analysis of structures to use energy deposits and other recourses, or for other purposes, in ocean environments requires a special consideration since environmental and loading conditions offshore are very complicated and contain large uncertainties. Offshore structures are continuously subjected to random ocean waves producing stochastic loads that cause mainly fatigue failure in structural components.

Pages : 40
Book Description
This report reviews the research which has been carried out from the 1980s to 2000 into the effect of cracks on the static strength of tubular joints. The effects of cracks on both plastic collapse and fracture are considered for a range of different types of joint geometry. The main geometries considered are T, Y, DT and K tubular joints with cracks around the weld toe in the chord and plain brace members with circumferential cracks. The information available consists of experimental test data and the results of a series of finite element analysis investigation

Book Description
This volume contains the Kurobane lecture and proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Tubular Structures - ISTS10, held in Madrid, Spain, 18-20 September 2003. The ISTS10 provides a platform for the presentation and discussion of seventy-three lectures covering themes including: bridges; roofs; design aspects and case studies; static joint behaviour; fatigue; members; beam-column connections; finite element methods; concrete filled tubes; trusses and frames; cast nodes; and behaviour of tubular structures under fire. This book provides a useful reference work for architects, civil and mechanical engineers, designers, manufacturers and contractors involved with tubular structures.

Book Description
This document contains the results of experimental and analytical studies of fracture in the ductile-brittle transition zone for two ship steels, EH36 and HSLA 80. Tensile, Charpy and fracture toughness test results using different strain rates are presented. fracture toughness was quantified by the J integral and the crack tip opening displacement (CTOD). Elastic-plastic finite element analysis was combined with a local failure criterion to derive size limits for J and CTOD testing in the transition regions. Relationships between J and CTOD testing in the transition regions. Relationships between J and CTOD were explored both experimentally and analytically. A theoretical Charpy-fracture toughness relationship was used to predict CTOD transition curves for the steels. Charpy and CTOD transition temperatures were compared for a number of steels.
