Fatigue Analysis cyclic loading

Altair Forum User

I was doing fatigue analysis on a model and I cant find the option for cyclic loading while defining the loading history. Also the units of my model are mm,g,s which gives stree units in pascals so should I define everthing in pascals including the ultimate tensile strength?

Also in the load time history should the input be time and forces or time and g(acceleration) values?

Hi,

 

Please refer Optistruct below tutorial for fatigue analysis.This will clear your doubts.

OS-1340: Fatigue (Stress - Life) Method

OS-1350: Fatigue (Strain - Life) Method

Optistruct dont follow any unit system.Please maintain unit consistency.

Hi Rahul,

 

Can you please tell how the fatigue analysis can be done.  The references are not working in my Laptop.

 

I need a clear picturization of the fatigue analysis.  I have studied the tutorial that is there in Altair.  But I have understood partially.  So, if there is any video can you please provide.

 

And some of the links which has kept in this site are asking client login.  How can I use them.

 

Waiting for your reply.

 

Thanks

Hi all,

I am looking for same question like this topic.

I wanna to setting fatigue analysis by hypermesh, then run solve by optistruct.

However, i dont know how to setting condition then.

Could any one teach me plz.

Thanks alot and have a nice day to all !

Hi DaiV

 

Have a check at the fatigue e-book (https://altairuniversity.com/free-ebook-learning-fatigue-analysis-with-optistruct/)

 

Thanks
