a. Depending on marine structure in service conditions (i.e.<br />

structure in water or in air) run an applicable loading<br />

analysis. Assuming a marine environment, run a storm wave<br />

deterministic fatigue analysis and obtain the results of hot<br />

spot stress range vs wave height for the wave directions<br />

considered and as many hot spots as are needed.<br />

b. Determine the critical hot spot and wave direction and draw the<br />

hot spot stress range vs wave height graph.<br />

c. Determine the hot spot stress range for each of the fatigue<br />

waves.<br />

d. For the larger fatigue waves in which vortex-induced<br />

oscillations occur, add the increase in stress range due to<br />

vortex-induced oscillations to the stress range from the<br />

deterministic fatigue analysis.<br />

e. Calculate the fatigue damage 02 over a 1 yr period for the full<br />

range of wave heights:<br />

f. Calculate the total fatigue damage:<br />

Dtot = DI + D2<br />

9= Calculate the fatigue life in years as:<br />
