The fatigue limit state (FLS) often drives the design of offshore wind turbine (OWT) substructures in European waters. Assessing fatigue damage over the intended design life of an OWT is computationally expensive, primarily as dynamic structural analyses have to be run for a large number of stochastic wind and wave loading conditions. This makes structural reliability assessment for the FLS a challenging task. In addition to evaluating load-induced fatigue damage, simulation-based structural reliability analysis also requires sampling of random variables that model uncertainties in the capacity of OWT structural components. To this aim, we develop and validate a computational framework for OWT fatigue reliability analysis that relies on Gau...
