Research Project

Consideration of sequence effects in service life estimation of hollow section joints

  • Experimental based investigation of the influence of realistic load and stress spectra including sequence effects on the lifetime estimation of welded tubular joints
  • Investigations depending on production conditions, size influence and material to ensure transferability to larger structures.
  • Derivation of correction factors from variable amplitude loading applied to known analysis methods to improve lifetime estimation.
