The superposition of low-frequency (LF) wave loads and high-frequency (HF) loads resulting
from springing and whipping will cause coupling damage due to the interaction of various …

Recent work by the authors investigated an extension of the finite element analysis of
plasticity-induced crack closure to non-stationary, ship structural loading sequences by …

The nonlinear synthetic bending moment caused by springing and whipping can be
simplified as the superposition of high-frequency load components and low-frequency load …

Fatigue crack propagation behavior under superimposed stress histories containing different
frequency components with several mean stress conditions was investigated. Numerical …

The typical classification rules-based fatigue assessment of ship structures is inherently
limited and must be rethought as new designs push the boundary of past experience. To this …

Numerical simulations of fatigue crack growth of welded structural component were
performed under fatigue testing conditions with block loading and constant stress range and …

Ship weather routing is routinely employed to assist ship-masters in avoiding storms. During
these storms, however, both material and hydrodynamic nonlinearities grow with the …

抄録 Plate-Bending-Vibration (PBV) type fatigue testing machines, which can carry out fast
and low-cost fatigue tests of welded joints subject to wave loads with high frequency …
