AutoFEM Analysis S-N Curve Point-to-Point | |
The S-N curve is derived as interpolation of the experimental data
To create the S-N curve and associate it with the material of the solid the user has to do the following steps:
1.Invoke the material properties window, choosing the solid in "AutoFEM Palette" and performing the command "Material..." from the context menu (by pressing 
).
2.Select the library of materials (into the group "Library").
3.Select the material from the list.
4.Select the page "S-N Curve".
The page "S-N Curve"
5.Press 
.
6.Define the parameter "Name" and set the value "User defined" for the parameter "Hypothesis".
7.Use button Paste to paste into the table a list of points defining S-N Curve. It can be S-N Curve copied from another material or a list of .
8.Use buttons Add and Delete to edit the curve.
9.Check the option "Assign this curve".
10.Press 
in the dialogue box of material properties.
Graph of the S-N curve can be stored into an external file (by "Export"), in order, that further it can be used in other fatigue calculations ("Import").
