TABFAT_pt1 and TABFAT_pt2 colums in *.rnf-File

Hello,

 

OS allows for a *.rnf - File-Ouput that prints for a given set of elements cycle number, stress amplitude, mean stress and damage.

 

1) There are two additional colums TABFAT_pt1 and TABFAT_pt2. What is the meaning of those two? TABFAT is not specified using an MTRAN-Analysis

 

2) I would like to plot the rainflow chart on three axis 1. amplitude 2. mean and 3. damage. Is there an option for that in HV?

 

Thanks and best regards

 

JD

    How many tabfat do you have in your mode?

    You can use HyperGraph 3D. You can refer to HG 3D tutorials available on HyperWorks help

    Hi Prakash,

    There is no TABFAT Loadcollector in my deck. I am conducting a transient response analysis that is referred to in the FATLOAD-Collector.

    HI,

     

    TABFAT_pt1: Indicates the first point of the load-time history for the current cycle.

    TABFAT_pt2: Indicates the second point of the load-time history for the current cycle
