Fatigue life improvement of welded structures by post-weld treatments and some limitations by geometry and loading mode
Abstract
The structural durability of welded structures is determined by the interaction of different influencing parameters like loading mode, spectrum shape, residual stresses and weld geometry among others. Examples from plant, offshore, transportation and automotive engineering show how these parameters influence the fatigue life and to what extent they are considered in design codes.
