Fatigue of Welds in fe-safe (FWFS)
This 1-day course provides a focused discussion on simulating the number of cycles till fatigue failures at welds in welded structures. The methods are based on predicting a crack through a certain thickness, in welded structures at the welds (toe, root, throat, etc. failure mechanisms in welds can be included). Both classification methods (such as BS5400 and BS7608) and structural stress methods (such as the Verity® module in fe-safe) will be covered.
