Fatigue design of a steel catenary riser (SCR) at the touchdown point (TDP) is a challenging problem. Many previous studies on this topic considered only the effect of wave-frequency (WF) vessel motions; the low-frequency (LF) motions are often neglected due to excessive computational costs. The LF...
