Dear all,
First of all, thanks for taking the time to check my thread.
I am a beginner with fatigue analysis. I need to obtain damage due to the application of 40.000 cycles of pressure inside a pressure vessel. I am using ANSYS Mechanical for this.
The thing is that I can carry out a static structural simulation and then use the fatigue tool to estimate fatigue life of the stucture (number of cycles before failure), damage, safety factor...
But I have no idea how to impose a given number of cycles (for the static results obtained) and compute damage (should be of course D<1).
Is it possible to do this in ANSYS Mechanical?
Any tips will be highly welcome.
Many thanks!
