Offshore Platform Deck Crane Fatigue Analysis Based on Abaqus

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article discussed the offshore platform deck crane fatigue performance with the finite element method. In Abaqus Fatigue Module, the fatigue strength analysis for the offshore platform deck crane was executed. Based on the fatigue simulation results and the material S-N curve, we made a reliable assessment of the offshore platform deck crane fatigue life. This fatigue analysis procedure can be easily used for optimizing the deck crane structure and reducing the maximum stress amplitude till to meet the engineering design specification.
