Combine damage results from 2 fatigue extraction files

This feature will be usefull if for one set of joints you need to use two (or more) distinct SN curves along the jacket life time (typically a S-N curve with paint in the first 15 years and free corrosion at the end of the jacket life)

This way we will be able to combine the damages from a first analysis using S-N curve "A" and a second using S-N curve "B".

It would result in a combined ftgext.* file in which the combined damage would be visualized and the joints could be redesigned.

    Hi,

    I think this is possible by creating damage file (FTGDMO) from 1st set and you can call this file in 2nd set analysis. Then the results from 2nd set shall be accumulated damage from 1st & 2nd sets.

    For above operation there are options in FTGOPT lines.
