Fatigue Reliability of Parallel Systems
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1990An exact general closed-form approach to estimation of fatigue reliability of parallel systems, which represent a set of failure paths of structural systems, is presented. The parallel system considered here is completely general and comprises components that are of different strength and share unequal loads.

Fatigue Reliability: Introduction
Journal of the Structural Division, 1982A four-part state of the art summary on fatigue reliability is presented by the ASCE Committee on Fatigue and Fracture Reliability. This first part reviews fatigue models commonly used by designers, e.g., the characteristic S-N curve for high cycle fatigue and the general strain life relationship for low cycle fatigue as well as the fracture mechanics ...

Fatigue Reliability of Old Semisubmersibles
Offshore Technology Conference, 2000Abstract Many units in the semi-submersible fleet have now reached such an age thattheir documented, minimum design fatigue life is either already exceeded, orwill, in the very near future be exceeded. It is anticipated that these units will continue in their existing mode ofoperation for some time

Reliability of Fatigue Testing
1981A statistical analysis was performed on fatigue test data for aluminum, titanium, steel, and nickel materials. The data for the titanium, steel, and nickel were obtained from spectrum fatigue tests, whereas the data for aluminum were obtained from both constant amplitude and spectrum fatigue tests. The analyzed data consisted of a total of 553 S-N test

Fatigue Crack‐Growth Reliability
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1990A method is shown for estimating the reliability of structural components subject to fatigue crack growth. The method is general in that it can be used in conjunction with any crack-growth law and either first- or second-order reliability techniques. The initial crack length, final crack length, and crack-growth parameters are taken as uncertain with ...

Fatigue and Reliability of Welded Structures
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2007<div class="htmlview paragraph">Fatigue durability of structural components depends on geometrical features, material fatigue properties, and service loading. The scatter of the three basic factors affects also the scatter of the fatigue durability of those objects.

Reliability and Fatigue Testing of MEMS
1998Microelectromechanical structures (MEMS) utilize brittle materials such as polycrystalline silicon (polysilicon) under potentially severe mechanical and environmental loading conditions. These structures may be subjected to high frequency, cyclic loading conditions, accumulating large numbers of cycles in relatively short periods of time.

Fatigue reliability of structural components
International Journal of Materials and Product Technology, 2006The paper is concerned with reliability assessment of structural and mechanical components subjected to cyclic variable amplitude service load. Due to relatively easy simulation and simple computational procedure, computer simulations based on the Monte Carlo method are often used for reliability assessments of engineering objects.

Marine Component Fatigue Reliability
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1993A method is presented for evaluating the fatigue of offshore structural steel members based on structural component reliability procedures coupled with spectral analysis methods. The approach is based on formulating a nonlinear performance function that expresses the cumulative fatigure damage in the form of Miner's rule.
