Investigation of the reliability deterioration of ageing marine structures

In the present work, an investigation of the fatigue life benefits emerging from fillet weld geometries optimization has been carried out. At first, an introduction to ageing mechanisms, corrosion and especially fatigue, acting on operating marine structures has been made. Residual stresses at weld...
