In this paper, a new computational model with appropriate specifications is presented for finite element analysis of local stresses at the intersections of longitudinal stiffeners with transverse frames under lateral loads in ship’s side structures. Because of the importance of such locations for fatigue analyses and also the dependence of these analyses on the maximum stress values at cr...
