Fatigue
Thu, 2011-02-17 14:24 - Panos Efthymiadis
Dear all,
I would like to ask you, how is it possible to simulate fatigue in Abaqus. I have created my loading. But if I run it as it is it will never reach a critical value, so you could say there is no damage evolution. Is it the only way is to apply some type of hysteresis loop evolution and say that after some cycles the hysteresis loop changes?
Any advice is more than welcome!
Regards,
Panos

Abaqus itself
Abaqus itself recommends a separate program to be interfaced with it, see
