Stress concentration factors for tubular joints
Stress concentration factors for tubular joints
(OP)
Regarding the manual: Fatigue Design of Offshore Steel Structures, Recommended Practice DNV-RP-C203 by DET NORSKE VERITAS , the Stress Concentration Factors formulas include the variables sin Ɵ max and sin Ɵ min and also ß max and ß min.
What exactly are the max and min in the formulas?
Thank you,
