Fatigue analysis of steel catenary riser by Chew, Jia Han.

“…The riser system, which is made of steel, has to withstand hostile condition of the deep sea especially in the touchdown zone. An object which is under constant cyclic loading can fail by fatigue, thus, a fatigue analysis will be done to find out the fatigue life of the SCR at the touchdown zone.…”
