Is it possible to define a fatigue S-N curve as a series of points in SimSolid?

Three options a readily available in SimSolid when defining the Stress-life (SN) curve as a fatigue material model: Estimate from UTS, one slope and two slopes.

How can I input fatigue properties as a general series of (n, S) points?

    I believe you can't load your curve as points. You would need to fit your data in log-log format, and then retrieve the curve slopes from there.
