Abstract
A method for determining the sensitivity of the fatigue life of a structural component with respect to specific design parameters includes obtaining the stress profile for a structural component under random process establishing a relationship between the stress profile and the fatigue life of the structural component, developing the sensitivity of the fatigue life with respect to design parameters, optimizing the design of the structural component based upon the design parameters to which the fatigue life is most sensitive.
