    Hi there. I need to perform Fatigue analysis for sea transportation in order to understand this calculation I started studying this guide "Tow Fatigue with SACS". I ran into a problem, if I understood correctly this formulas => have to calculate these…

    Anupam, Let's first look at the input requirements for a tow fatigue analysis: Fatigue Input File (ftginp) Common Solution File (saccsf) Seastate Input File or Tow Input File (towinp) The fatigue input file defines the fatigue cases which…

    Stephen, You need to do a Tow Fatigue analysis. Tow Fatigue will analyze fatigue damage of a structure by generating transfer functions using motion RAO's (Velocity, Motion or Acceleration RAO's) and combining those transfer functions with the wave…

    In the case of tow fatigue, the naval architect would typically provide the structural engineer with response amplitude operators (RAO's) which are calculated using their hydrodynamic analysis in MOSES. The structural engineer would then calculate the…
