The problem of constructing a probability density function (pdf) from four prescribed
moments arises in many fields, including engineering. This problem may be addressed by …

The fatigue reliability-based design is critical for the structural safety of floating offshore wind
turbines (FOWTs). In principle, infinite potential load conditions that the FOWT may …

The variability of the wind turbine loads complicates fatigue assessment in the design
phase, as performing simulations covering the entire lifetime is computationally expensive …

Fatigue design of a steel catenary riser (SCR) at the touchdown point is a challenging
problem. The touchdown point attracts the worst bending stresses and is subject to the …

This paper investigates the variability of the fatigue damage caused by the randomness of a
stationary Gaussian random loading. After reviewing some methods from the literature (eg …

Long-term fatigue assessment of an offshore structure is a challenging practical problem. An
offshore structure is exposed to fluctuating sea conditions, thus the fatigue analysis needs to …

This paper presents two theoretical models to assess the variance of the fatigue damage in
stationary narrow-band and non-Gaussian stochastic processes. The models extend two …

Using recent advances in data analytics techniques and tools, this paper proposes a novel
data-centric paradigm for riser fatigue analysis in which practitioners can efficiently make …

This article presents an application of a method for estimating the inherent statistical
variability of the fatigue damage computed in one single nonstationary random time history …

Wind-induced, large-amplitude vibrations of traffic-signal support structures are frequently
observed. Such vibrations can result in a large number of stress cycles and substantial …
