Abstract


The paper deals with the implementation of the chosen fatigue damage criterions into FE analysis. Our study considers a shell finite element structural analysis in conjunction with the multiaxial rainflow counting and the fatigue damage prediction. The computational analysis considers stochastic response under random excitation in time domain and damage calculation based on so called critical plane approach (CPA).
