The initial orientations obtained by electron backscatter diffraction （EBSD） are directly input into the CPFEM to simulate the mechanical response of polycrystalline 1050 pure Al in uniaxial tensile deformation. Two polycrystal models and two tensile strain rates were used in the simulations. The stress-strain curves of tensile deformation were analyzed. The predictions and the corresponding experiment result show reasonable agreement and slight deviation with experiments. The flow true stress of strain rate 0.01 s^-1 is higher than that of strain rate 0.001 s^-1. At the strain less than 0.05, the stress saturated rate of the experiment is higher than the simulated results. However, the stress saturated rate of the experiment becomes gentler than the corresponding simulated predictions at the strain over 0.05.

However, fatigue is a critical issue in assessing the feasibility of applying SLWR to large motion vessels such as floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) or semi-submersibles. In this work, the time-domain fatigue analysis of SLWR was adopted for better representing the structural nonlinearity, fluid load nonlinearity and riser-soil nonlinear interaction.

The main purpose of this analysis is to present sensitivity analyses of SLWR fatigue life under various input parameters, which include the structural damping, the hydrodynamic coefficients along the riser, the seabed stiffness, the vessel motions, etc. The analyses indicated the strong dependence of the riser fatigue life on these parameters. The results can help designers to understand the dynamic behavior of the SLWR and provide guidance for selection of some critical parameters that are used in the fatigue design.展开更多
