Fatigue Life Assessment Approaches Comparison Based on Typical Welded Joint of Chassis Frame
Abstract There are many approaches to the durability calculation that are used in engineering practice. At the same time the existing accident studies show that the leading position is still hold by fatigue failures. This means that there is still no universal approach to fatigue problem solution, and the existing approaches have their limitations. In…

Measured strain signal as a Boundary conditions for Finite Element submodel with application to crane structure residual life assessment
Abstract The general flowchart of a crane structure residual life assessment could be split into two basic stages. On the first stage crane structure critical elements are determined usually using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for the given operational parameters (i.e. safe working load, maximum outreach and back reach, speed of mechanisms etc.). On the…
