Offshore structures are valuable structures used in the offshore petroleum and gas fields for the purpose of hydrocarbon production operation. These structures are influenced by wave loads. Sea waves are inherently alternative and for this reason fatigue failure is considered as one of the most important modes of failure in these structures. Joints in these structures are made by tubes and they are called tubular joints. The joining process in manufacturing of these joints is welding. Welding process induces residual stresses, mostly tensional, in the substructure of materials. This tensional residual stress has a destructive effect on fatigue life of the joint and increases probability of... 

The first project ,paid to review and analysis types of crack and agents Also, was referred methods to control them in rail industry .
The wheel of Alestom train and UIC60 rail were simulated and stress analysis by software FEM (ANSYS and ABAQUS) , and effect of various parameters such as applied forces , train wheel diameter , contact position and rail inclination on stress values was studied . For comparision of results has been used analytic Hertz theory .
By using experimental data on the subsurface crack , those cracks were created in the wheel . For load on the modeling wheel and rail, ,assuming contact on the wheel rolling point , were used vertical load of wagon weight ( with...
