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.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContaining results of an investigation undertaken to assess the fatigue and fracture performance of steels used in the offshore industry, \u003ci\u003eFatigue and Fracture Mechanics of Offshore Structures\u003c\/i\u003e includes,\u003c\/p\u003e  *Stress analysis of tubular joints *Fatigue design *Fatigue loading in Jackup structures *Jack-up dynamic response *Modelling of wave loading *Test specimen considerations *The stress intensity factor concept *Variable amplitude crack growth models *Consideration of sequence effects *Sea state probability model  \u003cp\u003eThe important research in this book will be of interest to those dealing with a wide range of engineering structures - from bridges and buildings to masts and pipelines, as well as fatigue and fracture specialists, and those concerned with materials technology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45203958268055,"sku":"9781860583124","price":11272.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781860583124.webp?v=1767668501","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/fatigue-and-fracture-mechanics-of-offshore-structures-9781860583124","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
