1. INTRODUCTION
Damage and failure on ocean steel structures (OSS: offshore platforms,
ships, etc): mainly due to fatigue; at primary, secondary or tertiary
structural elements (intensity increases with corrosion)
Fatigue damage is one of the most important failure modes in OSS,
which are subject to continuous dynamic variable amplitude loading,
comprises of:
• Low frequency (quasi-static) cyclical load brought about the wave excitation,
at the rate of some 107 ~ 108 times during the operational life of the OSS (abt
20 years)
• High frequency (dynamic) cyclical loads which can be classified into transient
loads (slamming, wave slapping, hull whipping) and steady loads (engine
vibration, propeller, hull springing), at the rate of 106 times during the
operational life of the OSS (abt 20 years)
• Very low frequency (static) cyclical load brought about the variation of logistic
loads and hydrostatic loads (tidal), at the rate of 4000 ~ 8000 times during the
operational life of the OSS (abt 20 years)
• Cyclic loads due to the irregular thermal gradient brought about the climate
and cargo temperatures, at the rate of 7000 times during the operational life
of the OSS (abt 20 years)
1-1
A large number of factors affect the fatigue damage on OSS, like:
• Mean stresses and their redistribution
• Residual stresses
• Loading of the structure including load sequences
• Thickness of the structural joints
• Corrosive environments and temperature of the surroundings
• Design
• Fabrication and methods for improving fatigue performance
• Sensitivity of the material
Fatigue occurs mostly on the weld joints and structural elements
where stress concentration develops
Failure commences with crack initiation (fatigue) followed with crack
growth up to fracture take place on the structure.
Repair and maintenance costs for OSS: large proportion is
allocated to tackle the failure and damage due to fatigue (mostly
related also to corrosion)
Fatigue analysis at the design stage is mainly directed towards
identification of the structural parts which has a high probability to
suffer fatigue failure and further considered as the basis for
redesign of the corresponding structures
Result of final fatigue checks is necessary to establish an
inspection strategy for OSS
Differences between analyses of fatigue limit state (FLS) and
working stress design (WSD), ultimate limit state (ULS), or
accidental limit state (ALS):
1-2
Fatigue Design Criteria of Offshore Structures according to API RP 2A-
WSD and API RP 2A-LRFD:
• A detailed fatigue analysis should be performed for template type structures.
It is recommended that a spectral analysis technique be used.
• In general the design fatigue life of each joint and member should be at
least twice the intended service life of the structure (ie. SF = 2.0)
• For the design fatigue life, the design value damage ratio (damage index) D
should not exceed unity (<1.0)
• For critical elements whose sole failure could be catastrophic use of larger
SF should be considered (eg. up to 5.0) applied also for members where
access for inspection and repair is restricted
Example of the requirement on the design fatigue life of the Belanak
FPSO:
• Design service life 30 years
• Fatigue life of 60 to 300 years (10 times of service life !!)

Alexander L. Kielland Rig Accident
(Source: wikipedia)
The Alexander L Kielland was a Norwegian semi-submersible drilling rig that
capsized whilst working in the Ekofisk oil field in March 1980 killing 123
people. The capsize was the worst disaster in Norwegian waters since World
War II. The rig, located approximately 320 km east from Dundee, Scotland,
was owned by the Stavanger Drilling Company of Norway and was on hire to
the U.S. company Phillips Petroleum at the time of the disaster.
In driving rain and mist, early in the evening of 27 March 1980 more than 200
men were off duty in the accommodation on the Alexander L. Kielland. The
wind was gusting to 40 knots with waves up to 12 m high. The rig had just
been winched away from the Edda production platform. Minutes before 18:30
those on board felt a 'sharp crack' followed by 'some kind of trembling'.
Suddenly the rig heeled over 30° and then stabilised. Five of the six anchor
cables had broken, the one remaining cable preventing the rig from
capsizing. The list continued to increase and at 18.53 the remaining anchor
cable snapped and the rig turned upside down.

A year later in March 1981, the investigative report concluded that the rig
collapsed owing to a fatigue crack in one of its six bracings (bracing D-6),
which connected the collapsed D-leg to the rest of the rig. This was traced to
a small 6 mm fillet weld which joined a non-load-bearing flange plate to this D-
6 bracing. This flange plate held a sonar device used during drilling
operations. The poor profile of the fillet weld contributed to a reduction in its
fatigue strength.
Further, the investigation found considerable amounts of lamellar tearing in
the flange plate and cold cracks in the butt weld. Cold cracks in the welds,
increased stress concentrations due to the weakened flange plate, the poor
weld profile, and cyclical stresses (which would be common in the North Sea),
seemed to collectively play a role in the rig's collapse.

2. S-N CURVES AND GRAPHS
S-N Graphs contain scatter data obtained from fatigue tests on certain
structural joints (carried out in the laboratory) see Fig. 2.1 and 2.2
Figure 2.1. Test on structural configuration Figure 2.2. Test on a specimen using
on a load frame with actuators universal testing machine (UTM)
2-1
Figure 2.3. Fatigue test on a complex structural configuration
(aeroplane structure)
2-2
There are two general types of fatigue tests conducted. One test focuses on
the nominal stress required to cause a fatigue failure in some number of
cycles. This test results in data presented as a plot of stress (S) against the
number of cycles to failure (N), which is known as an S-N curve. A log scale is
almost always used for N.
The data is obtained by cycling smooth or notched specimens until failure. The
usual procedure is to test the first specimen at a high peak stress where
failure is expected in a fairly short number of cycles. The test stress is
decreased for each succeeding specimen until one or two specimens do not
fail in the specified numbers of cycles, which is usually at least 10 7 cycles. The
highest stress at which a runout (non-failure) occurs is taken as the fatigue
threshold. Not all materials have a fatigue threshold (most nonferrous metallic
alloys do not) and for these materials the test is usually terminated after about
108 or 5x108 cycles.
Since the amplitude of the cyclic loading has a major effect on the fatigue
performance, the S-N relationship is determined for one specific loading
amplitude. The amplitude is expressed as the R ratio value, which is the
minimum peak stress divided by the maximum peak stress. (R=σmin/σmax). It is
most common to test at an R ratio of 0.1, but families of curves with each
curve at a different R ratio are often developed.
(source: www.ndt-ed.org) 2-3
A variation to the cyclic stress controlled fatigue test is the cyclic strain controlled
test. In this test, the strain amplitude is held constant during cycling. Strain
controlled cyclic loading is more representative of the loading found in thermal
cycling, where a component expands and contracts in response to fluctuations in
the operating temperature.
It should be noted that there are several short comings of S-N fatigue data.
First, the conditions of the test specimens do not always represent actual
service conditions. For example, components with surface conditions, such
as pitting from corrosion, which differs from the condition of the test
specimens will have significantly different fatigue performance.
Furthermore, there is often a considerable amount of scatter in fatigue data
even when carefully machined standard specimens out of the same lot of
material are used. Since there is considerable scatter in the data, a
reduction factor is often applied to the S-N curves to provide conservative
values for the design of components.

3. FATIGUE ANALYSIS BY USING
DETERMINISTIC APPROACH
Computation of fatigue on a structural joint is carried out on the basis of
Palmgren-Miner (1945) cummulative damage hypothesis, expressed as:
m
ni n n n n
D 1 2 3 ......... m (3.1)
i 1 N i N1 N 2 N 3 Nm
where:
ni = number of cycles of stress range at intensity Si (N/mm2) which actually
occur on the structural joint brought about external load excitation (wave)
Ni = number of cycles of stress range at intensity Si (N/mm2) which will yield
fatigue failure on the joint in question. The figure may be obtained from an
S-N curve for an appropriate joint
Si = stress range (or DSi); twice of stress amplitude that is experienced by the
joint (N/mm2)
In accordance to Palmgren-Miner hypothesis, the failure of the joint takes
place when the damage index D approaches value of 1.0.
3-1
The value of Si accounted for in the computation is the maximum stress
range on a certain location within the joint (ie. hot spot stress) which can be
derived by magnifying the nominal stress range, Si(nom), by considering the
stress concentration factor (SCF). Hence the maximum stress range is
calculated as follows:
S i S i ( nom) SCF (3.2)
The nominal stress range, Si(nom), is obtained from the analysis of regular
wave load (deterministic analysis) to generate internal forces and/or
moments on the structural components in question, appropriately
correspond to the wave in the Metocean data.
The wave load so obtained is further accounted for in the structural analysis,
for instance global analysis by using a conventional stress analysis or by
means of global FEM (eg. SAP, GTSTRUDL, etc) to derive the nominal
stress range, Si(nom).
The value of SCF for a joint may be found by adopting peculiar formulae as
can be found in references by Almar-Naess (1985), API (1980), Munse
(1984), etc.
SCF is not necessary to be computed when the FEM could directly produce
stresses on the detail structure (eg. NASTRAN, ANSYS, ABACUS)
3-2
The number of cycles ni for any stress range Si which arises due to the
wave load is characterized by wave height Hi (m) and period Ti (sec) can
be calculated by using the following equation:
Pi T (3.3)
ni
Ti
Pi is the relative frequency of occurrence of each wave, having
characteristic height Hi (m) and period Ti (secs) which causes a stress Si
to develop.
Variable T is the fatigue life of the structure after counting all stress cycles
By substituting eq. (3.3) into eq. (3.1), the equation of structural fatigue
failure becomes:
P1T PT PT PT
D 2 3 ........ m 1 (3.4)
N 1T1 N 2T2 N 3T3 N mTm
The fatigue life T is finally found by solving the above eq. (3.4) by taking
into account Pi , Ni and Ti as shown in the example contained in Table
3.1.

As a summary, the procedure in accomplishing the structural fatigue
calculation by the deterministic method is performed as follows:
a. Find the wave distribution data containing the values of Hi (m), Ti
(secs) dan Pi
b. Calculate the wave load at any concerned joint as a function of wave
height Hi (m) and period Ti (secs) (by adopting the regular wave
theory deterministic method)
c. Calculate the nominal stress range Si(nom) (N/mm2) for any concerned
joint (by means of stress analysis, or FEM)
d. Calculate the SCF appropriately for the type of joint so concerned
e. Calculate the maximum stress range Si (N/mm2) at the hot spot
f. Select an appropriate S-N diagram related to the type of joint and
calculate values of Ni as functions of Si (N/mm2); this can be read
from the graph or derived from equation NSm=A
g. Calculate all Pi /(NixTi) and subsituted those into eq. (3.4) to obtain
fatigue life of the joint, ie. T (with final result in years) by inversing
the summation T = D ∑(Ni x Ti)/Pi
3-5
It should be noted that the deterministic approach has some drawbacks, as
follows:
a. The wave loads applied on the structure are generated by regular
wave, which is not essentially true in real operation.
b. The wave at any height interval Hi (m) corresponds only to a single
period Ti (secs). Hence this is not appropriate to be implemented on
structures which are sensitive to the wave period (or reversely
frequency) variation, where resonant might develop.
c. Point b) also implies that the method is appropriate only if the
structure having natural period (or frequency) outside the wave
periods commonly occur at sea. Such structures are inherently stiff,
eg. fixed jacket platform and other robust offshore structures.
d. For period (or frequency) sensitive structures the deterministic
method might give an over- or under-estimate results. Hence it
should be used only for rough estimate of fatigue life in early design
stage.

4. FATIGUE ANALYSIS ON OSS
BY FULL SPECTRAL METHOD
There are a number of aspects need to be comprehended as basic thoughts on
the necessity in performing fatigue analysis on OSS by employing the Full
Spectral Method, as follows:
OSS are designed to be operated in real seas with the primary (dominant)
environmental loads due to the wave excitation.
The real sea waves are random in nature, hence the responses of an OSS
due to the wave load excitation will also be random;
Therefore the number of load cycles as well as intensities should be
computed by applying an appropriate method and procedures so that
accurate results of the analysis will be attained.

Random waves (as in the case of any random signal), as shown by the time history
in Fig. 4.1, by means of Fast Fourier Transform could then be presented in the form
of wave spectra (see references on sea waves).
Following this, the random responses of an OSS could also be presented
in the form of response spectra. This is obtained by correlating the
responses in regular waves and the wave spectra. (Note: random waves as well
as random responses are composed by the superposition of a large/infinite number of regular
components)
From a spectra (either wave or response), and by applying certain
formulations and algorithms, one may derives the statistical value
(including the distribution) of the intensities as well as number of cycles
that could possibly develop during the lifetime of an OSS.
The technical detail of the full spectral analysis is as described in the
following.
4-2
First Stage: the distribution of fatigue load is computed on the basis
of loads on OSS due to regular waves excitation, similar to that
carried out in the deterministic approach (by employing Morison’s
theory, 2-D strip theory, or 3-D diffraction theory), depending on the
OSS configuration.
• The difference in comparison to analysis in Chapter 3 is, here the load
computation is performed by varying the wave frequencies w
(commonly between 0.1 ~ 2.0 rad/s at interval of 0.2 rad/s).
• Results of the analysis are then presented in the form of transfer
function graph, which correlate between the ratio of load amplitude
(bending moment, shear force, etc) to wave amplitude, designated as
the RAO (Response Amplitude Operator), for each incremental
frequency w. (see Fig. 4.2)
• RAOs are computed for a number of wave directions (appropriately
representing the occurrence in the operational site of the OSS).
• In some cases RAOs are also computed for a number internal load
conditions. For example analysis related to FSO may include: ballast
condition, 10% storage load, 50% storage load, and 100% storage
load.
4-3
Second Stage: transforming the Load RAO into Stress RAO for
particular joints under observation by performing stress analyses
(most appropriately applying FEM) see Fig. 4.2
RAO = zFw/zw
RAO = S/zw

Third Stage: conducting the full spectral analysis, comprises of the
following steps:
Step 1: the definition of operational scenario (operational box).
This step include also the determination of probability related to the
occurrence of any sub-operational box, eg. probability of wave
occurrences, probability of wave directions, probability of load
conditions, probability of advancing speeds, etc)
Probability of wave occurrences may be obtained from the wave scatter
diagram, as exhibited in Fig. 4.4. The (joint) probability of any single
combination of H and T is the fraction of its occurrence relative to the
total wave occurrences.
Probability of wave direction may be obtained from Metocean data,
which in most cases very much related to the geographical
chracteristics, climate and (dominant) wind directions.
Probability of load conditions is obtained from the fraction of certain
load condition (eg. 50% cargo load) relative to the overall load
operation (say: ballast, 10%, 50%, and 100% load)
Probability of advancing speeds is related to the sea going ships, which
are operated at different speed levels. For instance military vessel may
be operated at speeds correspond to harboring, surveilance, chasing,
combat, etc.

If p(S) is the stress pdf which can be defined in such a way hence p(Si)dS is
equivalent to the number of oscillation of stress component with the peak
value lies within an interval dS and with the mean value of Si. Further by
taking f and T as the mean frequency which vary randomly and the overall
operational time, respectively, hence the increase of the damage due to Si
which will take place during an interval T is:
T f p ( S i )dS

N(Si) is number of cycle which would bring about damage at stress level Si.
From eq. (5.2) the expected damage that would take place in a certain
period T, could then be obtained by integrating contributions of all cycles of
the stress components, that is:
p L (S )

If T is the operational life of the structure as initially designed (ie. TL), hence
TL= nL/f. So eq. (5.3) could be rewritten by substituting N=A/Sm , as follows:

It is important to notice that p(S) is the continuous form (theoretical) of pL(S) in
eq. (4.3), which represents a discrete distribution. From various investigation on
the long-term wave distribution it has been concluded that PL(S) could be closely
approximated by Weibull pdf, namely:
1
S S
p L (S ) exp (5.5)
where:
l = scale parameter
x = form parameter
The value of l is a function of the extreme stress range.
The value of x is a function of the structural configuration and operational
sea site; for the general equation x may range between 0.75 up to 2.0; for
ocean structure x may range between 0.9 (mostly for large structures) up
to 1.1. (mostly for small structures).

STRESS CONCENTRATION FACTOR

Pada titik yang berdekatan di suatu sambungan antara chord dan brace
nilai SCF yang terjadi akan berbeda, karena kedua member mempunyai
parameter-parameter dan orientasi yang berbeda. SCF untuk brace diberi
notasi SCFb dan untuk chord diberi notasi SCFc.
Hot spot adalah lokasi pada suatu sambungan (tubular) dimana terjadi
tegagan tarik/tekan maksimum. Secara umum diidentifikasi sda tiga tipe
tegangan dasar yang menyebabkan munculnya hot spot (Becker, et al.,
1970):
1. Tipe A, disebabkan oleh gaya-gaya aksial dan momen-momen yang
merupakan hasil dari kombinasi frame dan truss jacket.
2. Tipe B disebabkan detail-detail sambungan struktur seperti geometri
sambungan yang kurang memadai, variasi kekakuan yang bervariasi
disambungan dan lain-lain.
3. Tipe C, disebabkan oleh faktor metalurgis yang dihasilkan dan kesalahan
pengelasan, seperti undercut, porosity, dan lain-lain.
Untuk mencari besar dari SCF dapat dilakukan dengan pengukuran
langsung yaitu dengan ekspenimen dengan menggunakan strain gage
atau dengan menggunakan rumus-rumus pendekatan (kuang, semedley
dil). Beberapa rumus pendekatan yang diberikan oleh Kuang dan
Smedley sebagai berikut
