FATEVNT or FATSEQ

Hello,

 

Just a quick question: I want to combine an average load and an amplitude load for a fatigue analysis. Should I combine the two within the FATEVNT load collector (I think it is the right one) or should I combine the two within FATSEQ (I think it is more for repetition of loads) ? Could you help me with that ?

 

Also a side question: Is there a way to see the displacement results within Hyperview on an iso-density view of my piece in order to view the displacements on the result of my topology optimization ?

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

 

Regards,

 

Adrien

    Please use FATEVNT. FATSEQ will sequence the loads.

    I am checking this with experts. I will let you know soon.
