Probabilistic Assessment of Degree of Bending in Tubular X-Joints of Offshore Structures Subjected to Bending Loads
Fatigue life of tubular joints in offshore structures is significantly influenced by the tillman 750m degree of bending (DoB).The DoB exhibits considerable scatter calling for greater emphasis in accurate determination of its governing probability distribution which is a key input for the fatigue reliability analysis of a tubular joint.Although the
