Stresses at weld toes in tubular joints in offshore structures

The accurate prediction of stress concentration factors (SCF) at weld toes is recognised as one of the most important factors in the design, against fatigue failure, of welded tubular joints in offshore structures. The objectives of this work are i) to study the influence of some important tubular j...
