Fatigue Lives of Power Plant Structures Due to Load Sequence Effects Originating from Fluctuating Production of Renewable Energy
The change in operation of power plants due to the increasing use of renewable energies causes additional stresses to the components by a high number of smaller load cycles. This fact results in a demand for validated new approaches to estimate fatigue life especially for welded joints that are the...
