Please provide me some help on fatigue analysis.

How to create Load-Time History Definition for fatigue analysis?

What is meaning of load in load-time history definition? We have some load on component before we start the fatigue process.

Is this scale factor of load?

Hi Bhautik,

You can create a load-time history table via TABFAT (TABLEFAT) card in HyperMesh. This is available as a load collector in HyperMesh. What do you mean be some load on component? it would be a purely static consideration and fatigue deals with fluctuating loads.
