Dr. Inge Lotsberg

Specialist Engineer DNV Norway

Ph. D from The University of Trondheim in 1977: Finite Element Analysis of Some Problems in Fracture Mechanics. Worked in DNV since1979 with design and verification of offshore structures, development of structural design standards for DNV, Norwegian Petroleum Directorate, ISO and NORSOK. Worked with research and development projects which included analytical work on capacity of steel structures and grouted connections, laboratory fatigue testing, and development of fatigue design standards and a standard for probabilistic methods for planning of inspection for fatigue cracks. Author and coauthor of more than 140 conference and journal papers. Author of “Fatigue Design of Marine Structures” in 2016. A revised second edition including a new chapter on fatigue analysis of wind turbine support structures is being published by Cambridge University Press in 2026.

Offshore Foundations, Conference Day 1 | Tuesday, 25th August 2026

11:40 Advances in Fatigue Capacity of Offshore Wind Support Structures

* Latest research: revised S-N curve for butt welds, internal weld defects, thickness and size effects, weld‑improvement methods, updated SCFs for conical connections

* Effects of fabrication quality, early‑stage corrosion, and refined analytics on fatigue capacity

* Probabilistic approaches and relation to safety factors

* Outlook: Key challenges and opportunities for fatigue assessment in next‑generation offshore structures
