Abstract
Metal fatigue in welded joints in offshore structures is considered. Due to the considerable variability of conditions, a probabilistic approach is used. Theoretical studies of various aspects of the fatigue reliability problem in welded joints are presented. These include a study of the Palmgren-Miner rule, a modified linear model on S/N data, the use of the rainflow method of counting, and a closed form expression for the probability of fatigue failure. A probability model is derived as a suggested basis for an approach to fatigue design.
