Introduction1.1 PurposeThis report represents an attempt to apply to naval <strong>ship</strong>s a method developed <strong>for</strong> the <strong>fatigue</strong> analysis of<strong>commercial</strong> <strong>ship</strong>s. All aspects of structural <strong>design</strong> and construction as well as the operation of the <strong>ship</strong> at seahave a profound effect on the <strong>fatigue</strong> life of <strong>ship</strong> structure. There<strong>for</strong>e, a review of these factors, especially ascurrently applied to the <strong>design</strong> of <strong>commercial</strong> and naval <strong>ship</strong>s was undertaken as part of the study. One<strong>commercial</strong> method, the container<strong>ship</strong> version of the SafeHull program of the American Bureau of Shipping(ABS), was then applied to 10 naval <strong>ship</strong>s. This application was not straight<strong>for</strong>ward, and requiredmodifications to the input of the program, and interpretation of the program output. This ef<strong>for</strong>t represents anexample of the shortcomings and limitations of such an application of a program developed <strong>for</strong> one type of<strong>ship</strong>s when applied to a different type.As part of this study, the literature concerning <strong>commercial</strong> and naval methods of <strong>design</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>fatigue</strong> wasreviewed. The documents reviewed are listed in the list of references at the end of the report. The principalsubject matters investigated are listed below with a summary of the subject. The subjects will be discussed infurther detail in the remaining chapters of this report.14
