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 ...

Advanced fatigue reliability analysis
International Journal of Fatigue, 1991Abstract Factors in fatigue life prediction models can be treated as random variables reflecting inherent uncertainties in material behaviour and loading. Given the probability distribution of these factors, U , the distribution of life, N , is derived when a reliability analysis is performed.

Fatigue Reliability and Design
Journal of the Structural Division, 1974At present, the fatigue provision in most design specifications in this country is based upon test data presented in the form of modified Goodman diagrams. The recent AISC specification is based upon a constant-range criterion. In any event, neither the randomness of fatigue lives nor that of applied loads is being considered.

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

Fatigue Reliability: ECCS Safety Factors
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1987A simple reliability analysis for limit-state (load and resistance factor) fatigue assessments is presented. This analysis was recently proposed in guidelines published by the European Convention for Constructional Steelwork (ECCS). Partial safety factors are related directly to the safety index by means of a simple formula, and examples are shown ...

Combined-stress fatigue reliability analysis
Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium. 1998 Proceedings. International Symposium on Product Quality and Integrity, 2002The deterministic Goodman diagram, which reflects the relationship among the mean stress, the alternating stress and the appropriate strength properties of a material, is commonly used to bring the influence of the nonzero stress ratio of the alternating to the mean stress into consideration.

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 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.

Reliability‐Based Progressive Fatigue Collapse
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1983General relationships between individual joint reliability and overall system reliability in a redundant structure with no repair program are presented. Using a fatigue reliability model, a Monte Carlo analysis provided a distribution of time to failure for various degrees of redundancy.
