Hello there,

I started using Simlab a few weeks ago, and I need your help to get a good interpretation of graphical results on fatigue life. In the attached file, I have reported the results of my simulation. The Life plot shows the damage at 3.98e-01, does this mean I have a failure at less than 1 cycle? I suspect no.
So, what does it mean?

Thank you
Enrico
