The Research Development of the Mechanism of Fatigue Crack Initiation Based on Microstructure for Offshore Platform

Abstract:

In the capricious marine environment, the offshore platform structure is exposed to the multiaxial fatigue loading in which damage would be formed in different directions and planes. Evolution of the structural damage physical mechanism caused by marine environment load is more complicated. Based on the analysis of a large number of literatures, this paper reviews the research status of the fatigue crack mechanism in China and abroad, and predicts the development direction in the future.
